<p>AEM seems to be a somewhat reputable program and a program where kids get recruited to top-notch firms in that field.</p>
<p>I was also accepted to stern, tepper, emory as well and i think its coming down to either AEM or stern.</p>
<p>I want to know how rigorous it is at AEM (not just compared to other departments at Cornell but to other schools mentioned above like stern and tepper. And other aspects too (pretty much anything).</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>AEM is on a fast track to a great ranking. It is already at #10 even though it is a relatively newly accredited program. It is the #2 business program in the Ivy League (obviously after Wharton). It is also relatively easy to get a good grade. I think the average grade is a bit higher than normal...this can Really help when applying to grad school. I'm not actually in it so I'll stop there and c what people w/ personal experience can say.</p>
<p>all im hearing is that cornells nearly impossible to get good grades (especially in certain courses). the fact that it is relatively easy relieves me a bit but still curious as to how much workload they normally get</p>
<p>Bah. AEM majors don't do any work =. I honestly think they do a lot less work than Hotelies even though everyone gives **** to Hotelies for having an easy major.</p>
<p>How hard is it to apply to AEM (and get in) from Cornell, assuming one is in CALS</p>
<p>AEM might be the easiest major at Cornell. If you can't get a 3.9 in that major, you're doing something wrong.</p>
<p>does anyone know either the median or the mean gpa (AEM of course)</p>
<p>You're going to hear that AEM is an easy major, but trust me--you can't comprehend how easy it really is. Come here and you'll have a 4.0 if you put any work in it all. It also as a good rep, although not as good as Stern's. But I suspect that AEM is easier than Stern is.</p>
<p>hmm... the reason why im prob gonna go to AEM is cuz of its already-somewhat decent reputation and the fact that it is CORNELL</p>
<p>im hoping that its reputation and its ranking get better in the future...!!</p>
<p>i really hope that the school is as easy as all of u said</p>
<p>any more comments?</p>
<p>Dude, AEM is a very reputable program that is really, really easy, so if that's the subject matter you are interested in then you should really just go for it. At least what I hear and what I see on this thread so far. My AEM friends could drink 7 nights a week and still pull off GPAs that would make any non-genius engineer or premed jealous.</p>
<p>i hear its one of the most difficult majors to get into but fairly easy to stay in, as many people mentioned above with the above-average GPA. although, if word spreads i really don't think it'll be too 'easy' anymore. you also have to remember that if the program is that selective, than the average student should be a bit smarter. i've read hear that some of the professors are tired of being known to teach the 'easy major' and that this is little by little changing. i also wouldn't count on the high GPA giving one the leg up for grad school admissions. just like HS/college, grad school adcoms know what schools/majors give what kinds of grades.</p>
<p>btw im applying to both Stern and AEM, but if I get into cornell, im gone.</p>
<p>How hard is it to transfer from Arts & Sciences to AEM?</p>
<p>apparently its a piece of cake. you simply fill out a form and youre practically in. no fair for an external transfer like me. :(</p>
<p>I read like 30% of students in any given Cornell school are internal transfers, so that tells me transfer applications for internal transfers are basically a formality</p>
<p>nowayjose, i must say, no way jose. AEM is tough to transfer into... cuz everyone wants to get in. From what i hear, they like engineers because of their analytical skills. Speak to Dale, she is very nice.</p>
<p>and if you didnt know, Professor Perez is a @#!!@#. on his multiple choice tests, he asks you to rank stuff that are totally unrelated... so there would a group of matching questions consisting of 5 items where you have to rank them by imporance ...</p>
<p>my ap tests will place me out of the calc and micro/macro, so i just take an AEM class and do well in it?</p>
<p>is it possible to do an AEM double major or a minor as a student not in CALS?</p>
<p>i don't think so.</p>
<p>harvardman, Perez teaches marketing right ?</p>
