<p>Is there a tangible difference?</p>
<p>cornell, brown is usually not as good for banking</p>
<p>Cornell (10 characters)</p>
<p>investment banks and hedge funds recruit heavily on the brown campus and take dozens of students a year--in fact they are the single biggest employers of brown seniors. </p>
<p>hedge funds like bridgewater don't even stop at cornell.</p>
<p>can I see data. Is brown better simply b/c it gets 1 more hedge fund? That's not a tangible difference. ****</p>
<p>is the difference 1 hedge fund? Thats not that big of a deal.</p>
<p>They're pretty much equal....if I had to lean either way I'd say cornell is better</p>
<p>bridgewater isn't just "one hedgefund"--it's the second largest hedgefund in the world. </p>
<p>i'm sure there may be companies that recruit at cornell that don't recruit at other places. but the fact that the best (most prestigious) companies, such as goldman sachs and mckinsey, take more brown students per capita than at cornell AT LEAST indicates that cornell is no better than brown for a career in i-banking or management consulting</p>
<p>ok, point understood. If your looking at per capita, you have to take into account that almost have the students at cornell will not be interested in ibanking: think hotel admin, Cals (non AEM), ILR (most likely), Human Ecology, and most engineers. Brown, on the other hand, lacks these contract colleges. </p>
<p>Anyways, can you guys compare Northwestern to these two schools. </p>
<p>How do you know that bridgewater does not recruit at NU?</p>
