I know this is very subjective and even a bit skeptical since you don't know me, but, go to Oxford.
And here's a logical reason why:
I know that many times, rankings are skewed and very biased; but there's always some truth in lies. Can I get a witness?
I don't understand why people place so much concern on the AA degree from Oxford. Essentially, one is graduating from Emory University. period.
I was also excepted to CAS at Boston. I declined the other day, although, I know it would probably be a lot more fun and interesting living in Boston with thousands of different college students.
While I can't comment on who is better for Econ, ultimately, Oxford/Emory wins in all aspects. I'm going in undecided and I don't plan on going into Nursing, Pre-Med, or Business, which are Emory's pride and joy.
Overall, I know I'm going to get something great out of that place no matter what I choose to do: work in ministry or become the next asian american president. (which i predict to become a more plausible possibiltiy after this year's elections)
