<p>i was wondering,
does anyone know if brown’s business economics is good preparation for business grad school? i mean, do grad schools look favorably towards it as much as upenn’s wharton school, uchicago’s economics, etc…?</p>

<p>Yes. Brown alumni do very well at getting into the top grad programs.</p>

<p>Be very wary of statistics like that one - they are easy for colleges to manipulate.</p>

<p>Also, they said "nearly" 100%.</p>

<p>the truth is that any of the non-HYP Ivies/Duke/Chicago are probably relatively equivalent (although if you go to Cornell you'd probably want to do financial engineering instead, since companies don't recruit quite as heavily in their A&S as other places) and will get you most places you want to go. so yes, brown is fine</p>
