That’s all ok. But it’s the reality.
Like Wash U, in academia, people are impressed and will have good Grad School opportunities.
Regionally in Atlanta it’s on par with the finest schools with employers. Outside of that, you’re not working at Goldman Sachs having unseated someone from Wharton or other kids from all the higher ranked schools.
On campus recruiting is just Ok and should be better given it’s ranking.
That’s the reality from a recent grad. I liked my time there.
People on this site have mental illnesses and you are one of them. And no one believes you went there, you've been responding to your own comments and making up lies for 2 days. Most Emory grads live and work in the northeast. Every school that isn't Harvard, Yale, or Princeton is an ivy reject school; including other ivys. How is a School impressive to graduate schools but not employers, How does that work?
opinions are just that and everyone has them... The rankings say Emory is on par with Vandy, WashU, Notre Dame and the like and has similar test scores... Georgetown has actually fallen behind a bit.

Definitely not the same person. But whatever makes you feel better.
The truth is that Emory simply is not that elite. It’s a good school but it tends to get way overhyped on here for some reason.
If Emory isn't elite then Vanderbilt, Cornell, Dartmouth, Georgetown, Carnegie Mellon and a host of other schools not ranked in the top 10 aren't either. Which is fine but just keeping you honest.
What? Cornell and Dartmouth are elite, no holds barred. But also, your point of comparisons don't even make sense. Emory isn't ranked above Vanderbilt, Cornell, or Dartmouth in any rankings.
there's no difference between schools ranked 11 to 25 or so. So if the school ranked 20 isn't elite then that must mean all of the schools in that group aren't.
You are delusional.
No it's you. Cornell is not Harvard. Employers will not see Cornell or Emory differently.
As an employer, I can tell you that we do. Doesn't mean that Emory isn't a decent school, but you're only embarrassing yourself.
I am speaking from experience. In final round interviews Cornell, Vandy, Georgetown whatever schools pp listed would not tip the scale.
Also, https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/1010579.page
They're all ranked similarly.
In both academia and the workforce, Cornell is undeniably viewed a step (or two) above Emory. I'm not even a Cornell alum or have any relation to the school, but come on. You just sound desperate. It's actually a little sad.
+1 our firm doesn’t even recruit at Emory.
what firm is that?
It's gotta be the firm of SAHM with time on her hands, right? She wouldn't hire anyone to wash her car unless they went to Harvard.

not sure what firm you're talking about but which school is more likely to send students to medical school? PP did not say Emory was better than those schools but at the same/similar level. These schools have their strengths and weaknesses.

Posters say no one cares about this school yet there's a new thread on Emory once a month. Emory is ranked top 25 on several rankings, I'm not a rankings snob but one would think they all can't be lying.
For comparison UCB and UVA are ranked 36 and 55 on WSJ.

You repeating yourself over and over on this thread doesn't change facts and real data. How would you know the market of academia AND THE entire workforce? Don't know what hard-on you have for Emory this Tuesday but that's what's truly embarrassing. You must have gone to NYU or Tufts or something. No HYP grad has Emory on their mind.

I don't know how to break this to you, but Cornell, Dartmouth and Vanderbilt are all ranked above Emory.
Emory is more a peer of schools like Tufts and NYU.
If this makes you feel better sure. The people that matter say otherwise. Emory has been a top 25 school for 30 years now. Your opinion does not matter.
