chances for these places

<p>As far as NYU, CMU and UNC being equal as business schools–</p>

<p>NYU is by far the best school for finance in the country except Wharton. They focus the whole school around this–and 80% of the people who go to Stern go into the finance program or entrepreneurship.</p>

<p>CMU is more around quantitative sciences, supply chain/logistics and production/operations areas–but is also fairly broad-based.</p>

<p>UNC is extremely broad-based, but the focus is on Marketing. Think product-line specialists.</p>

<p>Oh, and UCLA has no undergraduate business school–you can only major in Business Economics there (with an Accounting specialization if you want as a minor). The graduate business school is excellent, though.</p>

<p>Both USC and NYU Stern are famous for the “Stern curve”–meaning the grading is tough at the business schools–google this for more info (I think the GPA average is not allowed to be above 2.85 for any class).</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>
