<p>dcfca: were you talking to me? i never said their ranking system was accurate for undergrad or MBA. i said they were manipulating the rankings to make profit.</p>

How does CMU get a C for job placement when it has a 55k average starting salary, 11k more than Indiana grads? CMU also is ranked #2 behind wharton for academic quality, but obviously that doesn’t matter.</p>

<p>Also, they only look at in-state tuition for public schools, even though some pay out of state. In-state schools get an automatic boost by that.</p>

<p>I JUST DONT GET THIS!
CMU, the one school I chose as an example for schools that got ripped off by BW, has an academic ranking of 2 and is tied for first in starting salary. Aren’t those the two most important factors that business students are worried about? But it manages to get 16th.</p>

<p>How is Howard’s placement though?</p>

163

<p>apparently very good. especially with elite places.</p>

164

<p>it’s probably the top students who go to Howard that get recruited. It’s an easy way to help make sure banks are pretty diverse.</p>

165

<p>I want some diversity action, crap even though I’m black when I look up scholarships and crap on the UNCF, etc… you have to go to a HSBCU. Thats crap.</p>

<p>Oh well…IU will have to suffice. But, IU has a lot of scholarship opps.</p>

166

<p>Yeah, but I put money on it that the people who do get recruited are pretty smart. I would say they are definitely at the level of recruits from other schools and it is unfair to say that they use it for diversity. I had a frined this year who turned down Cornell AEM so he could attend Howard, simply because he wanted to be with a school that would allow him to learn more about his culture and background. There are a lot of people like this at howard.</p>

167

<p>MsSales, you should see if you can apply for that Goldman Sachs summer program.</p>

168

<p>Oh, don’t get me wrong. I’m certain they are bright. You have to be bright to get an Ibanking job (for the most part).</p>

169

<p>That rising sophomore thing? They deactivated the link.</p>

170

<p>yeah the rising sophmore thing.</p>

171

<p>See there is no link.</p>

172

<p>SEO does come on IU campus though, and a couple of people in the IU Kelley Workshop were also in SEO, I saw two people who were in SEO both got full-time jobs, one with J.P Morgan, and the Other was Goldman Sachs I believe.</p>

173

<p>yeah that’s weird. at my school you fill out an application and drop it off, so maybe that’s how it is?</p>

174

<p>Whats SEO?</p>

175

<p>yea, probably, but my school ain’t recurited, so I can forget about that I guess.</p>

176

<p>SEO = Sponsors for Educational Oppurtunity. An organization for minorties, helps with career placement they place somewhere like 90% I think, some sick number.</p>

177

<p>yeah i’m hoping to get into SEO, one of the few times being an asian is accepted by those things.</p>

178

<p>One of the girls who was excepted was Asian, she had sick numbers though.</p>

179

<p>Place 90%?! Too bad I cant get in…discrimination.</p>

180

<p>Trust me they are more than qualified. Like 3.9s and crap.</p>

<p>Here is one. </p>
