MSB (the Business School)

<p>I've heard that the business school at Georgetown is basically a joke. Is it true that people in the MSB do no work? And also, is the MSB not very highly respected in the business world? I've been accepted at Notre Dame also and 'word on the street' (lol) is that I'd be much better off if I studied business at ND. I really love Georgetown though so I'm hoping this isn't the case....any thoughts?</p>

<p>That is not true at all. MSB is highly regarded in the business world, in fact, Id venture as far to say that it is one of the largest recruited schools for I-Banks after the ivies and the like. Notre Dame is a great school, but I don't think the same number of opportunities exist for their grads as those at GTown.</p>

<p>i don't think living in south bend indiana is worth the barely more well-respected education.</p>

<p>if the choice were between wharton and MSB, it would be a different story. But come on...It's Georgetown.</p>

<p>Gtown biz may be ranked low..but its heavily recruited and in the end thats all that matters. Oh and on the east coast (where you will want to get a job in the financial world..nyc) Gtown is more highly regarded imho.</p>

<p>what about MSB vs. the public policy/pre-business program at duke? would MSB still be a better option?</p>

<p>Rankings on US News are not very accurate when it comes to the real world... anyways, I can tell you that my brother graduated from MSB in 2000 and now he's ridiculously successful working at goldman sachs...</p>

<p>Why is the MSB ranked so low?</p>

<p>anyone? anyone?</p>

<p>i don't know, my georgetown interviewer was going on about how exclusive msb is. he told me not to worry about getting into sfs because "sfs isn't as hard to get into as msb"
i'm getting mixed messages here</p>

<p>umm are you sure combatbaby? at least according to SAT scores and stuff, MSB is far easier to get into than SFS...</p>

<p>well maybe my interviewer was biased because he went to msb.. and also he was like 60 years old so he probably was comparing msb and sfs of way back when</p>
