<p>"The dude who called "dude" and "pathetic", I recommend you to reevaluate what truly is pathetic. Replying to a message I've abandoned more than 3months ago with a lame argument and attempt to refute this again seems to be "pathetic" my eyes."</p>
<p>I don't check CC everyday.</p>
<p>"I've seen who goes to Kenan-Flagner to recruit. McKinsey, Lehman Brothers, and Merryl Lynch. Most of my friends actually work between 8th and 3rd ave. so you don't have to tell me about it. UNC and UVA business in calibur are almost neck to neck. I feel there is no need to refute this. I'm out."</p>
<p>Lehman? Merrill? c'mon they go to a lot of schools to recruit. not something you can be extremely proud of. i can name at least 30 schools lehman and merrill recruit from. you claimed unc's business school is better than uva's. i used real evidence to show you it's not true. what indicates real caliber? blackstone. lazard. blackstone goes to 8 schools only, lazard goes to less than 20 schools. If you had said UNC and UVa business are neck to neck in your original post, I wouldn't have posted anything. it's that you said UNC>UVa.</p>
<p>I've never even heard of UNC as being any sort of prestigious...?? just another state school rep. around my hometown.</p>
<p>certainly I've heard of UVa all my life.</p>
<p>(I'm from Houston--maybe that's why?? no idea)</p>
<p>svt then you've been sheltered. unc is a great school. :-/</p>
<p>Well, whether you check these threads daily or not, you must have looked to an old thread that people do not discuss over. Actually, as I recall, I've posted in this thread nearly 6 months ago (as opposed to 3months). Back then, there were people making significant comparison between these two schools. Assessing the vibe of the thread and since I've arrived at the page through a link on a search (by chance) I didn't know it was UVA forum then. Therefore I stopped posting in this thread. Therewere somepeople commenting that UNC has never outranked UCB or UCLA and I ignored it because I had a excel data which compiled 10yrs of worth US News rank data that my brother showed me while conducting college search himself (this was starting from 1990 I believe when top 25-50 was categorized as "first tier" and UNC was in top 25 as opposed to many of the schools in top 25 were not.)
With consulting firms recruiting, I've made references to major firms that report to BW and WJ with number of students from a school which they recruit and emply. Therefore, Lehman Brothers, Mckinsey, JP Morgan and Goldman Sach were the ones that are often used as a gauge for measuring initial success of student body graduating out of a b-school. And UNC KF graduates that are greater in some of these firms employment are greater than UVA's and vice versa.</p>
<p>Several days ago, I was on the UVa forum, and this thread was on the top of the page. So i kinda assumed it was new, i didn't bother to look at the dates.</p>
<p>UNC KF does have great recruiting. I never said UNC sucks in recruiting, coz it doesn't. However, there is a difference between "awesome recruiting" and "elite recruiting". I don't know if it's b/c UNC is located in North Carolina, it has yet to join the "elite recruiting group", which has only about 10 members right now. If you don't believe it, you can post on the "Business Majors" forum and see for yourself. Goldman, Lehman, JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley are fantastic firms for fresh undergraduates. However, there is always something better, more elite.</p>
<p>Businessmen like to make friends, not enemies. So, let's both peace out.
UNC is a fantastic school, I have lots of friends there, even friends who went there all the way from Northern Virginia.........</p>
<p>mcintire is a small step above Unc's school. With that said, I think it is a bit misinforming to only state companies that recruit there without showing the statistics that most kids DO NOT go to New York or Wall Street.</p>
<p>Because NYC is the only place in the country to work?</p>
<p>Using his example it was miinforming since he only listed the wall st companies. You should show the stats of how many kids GET those top jobs. For example, having consistently 1 kid going to blackstone is almost as good as nothing at all.</p>
<p>3 kids got in blackstone last year, 4 got in lazard.</p>
<p>blackstone recruited FOUR interns IN THE NATION this summer, two of them are from McIntire.</p>
<p>source? oh this is ugrad rite?</p>
<p>Undergraduate yes. </p>
<p>Source? the dean of the comm school, as well as mcintire's annual placement report.</p>
<p>So futurewhartonman, I guess you are a member of wharton's class of 2010?</p>
<p>where can i find this annual placement report? plzz link</p>
<p>there's a copy of the placement report in the comm school,
in the career office. there's a copy online somewhere, google it.</p>
<p>i'm in search for a wharton report too. i've seen it once, but cant find it ever again.</p>
