<p>It really depends on the location.
If you want to work in the westcoast, Haas will be considered first hand before Stern.</p>

alex you are biased but Ross is not that great. it has a huge student body...

By the same yardstick you would have to conclude that Stern is not that great either. Stern is larger than Ross. And if you are referring to the overall UG student body, NYU (20,000) is about as large as Michigan (25,000). And if you subtract off the students from the college of engineering, the UG size is virtually the same at the two schools.</p>

What do you know about Ross and its placement? Alex has given some numbers. Let's see yours to prove your point.</p>

Sakky I respect your opinion but you are no longer correct about Tepper. It has gained much soft-core skills in the past few years and Comp Finance is not offered in Tepper. It is a joint program mostly for SCS/MCS kids. Only 2 econ/business kids out of 14 overall are in the major. Over half are SCS. Offering a "Masters" is much different from Ugrad. The only thing that should matter is the postgrad reports which Tepper has proven it sends many kids to the top Wall St. companies. In fact, 2005 mode companies were Merill Lynch, JP Morgan, Lehman Brothers, and IBM Consulting.. '06 mode companies include Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, Deutsche Bank, etc.

<p>I don't see how this makes me wrong. My simple point is that Sloan is no more 'techy' than is Tepper. After all, Sloan also offers plenty of soft-skill classes. </p>
<p>My point about the Comp Finance program at Tepper is simply to say that MIT is no more tied to comp finance than Tepper is. After all, even if Tepper's comp finance program is a joint master's degree program, contrast that with Sloan that doesn't have a comp finance degree program ** at all **. MIT has a certificate program, but no actual degree program in comp finance. </p>
<p>Furthermore, the mode employers for Sloan are companies like McKinsey, Goldman Sachs, BCG, and the traditional banking/consulting firms. </p>
<p>Hence, there is no reason to exclude Sloan but include Tepper. Either you include both or you include neither.</p>
<p>Well, your point might've been ambiguous to the general readers out there and I just wanted to clear it up. I don't really understand your comp finance argument as all it says about CMU is that CMU offers a Computational Finance major under multiple schools. CMU does not have the size to fill such a major (there are only around a dozen or so students each year) so there has to be supported by programs from other schools. It is a matter of EDUCATION and STUDENT BODY, not a "tech" implication. CMU simply cannot make the major stand out by itself at the moment. I assure you though that if it did become a major it would be entirely within SCS. </p>
<p>Also, read my original post and you see I basically agreed with you. I said Sloan should also be included. You should not exclude MIT from a b-ranking.</p>

<p>My point about Comp Finance was to counter sternman87's point about Comp Finance. Remember, he was the one who first raised this issue, not me. </p>
<p>Here is his quote:</p>

sakky did u read the info course guide from MIT. It's not really business it's more tech and they do stuf like comp finance so i left 'em out.
[/quote]
</p>
<p>Hence, my simple point is that I see no reason for sternman87 to bring up the point about comp finance as it has to do with Sloan, but not mention it at all when it comes to Tepper. So if you are confused about the point, you should take it up with him, not with me. Again, I am not the person who first raised the issue. </p>

<p>Trust me, I am well aware that we are on the same side on this issue. But we should also be clear about who said what first.</p>
<p>Ah I see. I think I just naturally skip Sternman's posts when I see his name on the left side.</p>
<p>Seattle's quality of life>>>>>>>NYC</p>
<p>They probably picked NYC because of the large Jewish populaton and the density of buildings.</p>
<p>i'd expect an antisemetic statement from a guy like u . NYC >>> a festering rancid #(@thole like seattle. NYC is the center of the business world and therefore the center of America. It has beautiful women, prestigious elites, and everything else you could want in the nation's greatest city. Not to mention I'll be making triple your income.</p>
<p>And paying triple his living expenses.</p>
<p>It is not anti- anything , it is a simple fact and if you think Islamic terrorists are not well aware of that fact you are dumber than most of your posts here to date. It will take you some time to make triple my income.</p>
<p>As to Seattle--typically it ranks well above NYC as a place to live in most surveys. Mountains, water and clean air thank you are better than concrete and a-holes. Microsoft, Boeing, Starbucks, Amazon and many biotech firms are based here and expanding every year. While NY's home prices are falling ours are still going up and much more reasonable. Plus we have no state or local income tax so we get to keep more of what we make.</p>
<p>Sternman87, I might be wrong, but I don't think janitors in NYC make three times as much as janitors in Seattle.</p>

<p>seattle is a great area, but not for everyone, but for me, i love RAIN</p>
<p>There's no way NYU is #4 for MBA. I wouldn't put it in the top 12 at all actually, maybe ~ #15. The NYU MBA students/grads I know weren't even bucking for a promotion that they were in the top 10.</p>
<p>I'm not big on the rain but the summers are awesome. Clear and low humidity with little rain. At least the snow is usually up in the mountains.</p>
