<p>What school is better when it comes to business, placement, student environment? Which school is more cutthroat and gives you a better chance at a high paying job on Wall Street? Thanks. Overall.... which is the better school?</p>
<p>Cornell aem.</p>

<p>I don’t have a single bad thing to say about Stern … but …</p>
<p>Cornell has a much better reputation overall and has much more clout with the wall-streeters. AEM has a fantastic reputation (as does Stern).</p>
<p>Given the questions you ask – not even a close call.</p>
<p>Stern places better but the competition there is crazy. Everyone in Stern is gunning for Wall Street, especially banking and Trading.</p>
<p>I was thinking of going to investment banking and ask if Cornell has a upper hand in it since it has been increasing in ranks as well as it being an ivy league school or stern since it is all about finance?</p>
<p>Stern definitely has better wall-street connections and most grads are aiming for high powered jobs…it’s a very serious program, probably much more academically rigorous than AEM. But in reality, when it comes to business majors, the differences between undergrad programs is marginal; your character traits and personal skills will take you much further in the industry.</p>

Not true, I’d say AEM has slightly better individual connections - other than its locational disadvantage
“…it’s a very serious program, probably much more academically rigorous than AEM.”
I agree here.
