<p>I know I'm invoking a torrent of hellfire and brimstone with this thread, but I really need help because I can't decide. I live in West TN and I know a lot about Vandy, but I'm not too knowledgeable about Emory. I want to major in Business/Engineering (I want to go into IB (I know its hard)). So, what are my chances of achieving that at either school? And overall, which would be a better school in terms of the "experience"? Also, socially, I need some occasional sanity, from what I can see, both schools can be pretty heavily party-oriented, so am I just doomed? Also, I heard from a friend that the chicks at Emory were incredibly hot, but the ratings, alas, seem to say otherwise, so whom should I believe? (It won't really affect my decision, but I'm still curious :p)</p>
<p>this is being discussed elsewhere-- check the Vandy and Emory forums</p>

<p>tu160m, I'm faced with almost the exact same situation (got into both Emory and Vandy and I live in Nashville).</p>
<p>I don't know about you, but I kinda feel like college is about leaving your comfort zone and experiencing a new city/ state/ whatever (however this applies more to me than you because i basically pass thru the vandy campus everyday). anyway, I would go with Emory just because it's going to be a new experience.</p>
<p>oh by the way, the girls at Vandy are ridiculously hot. i would know because i go to the football and basketball games. and i do homework in the libraries sometimes. you think you see one really hot girl, but then ten minutes later, you see 10 more just as hot. haha it's pretty funny!</p>
