@bernie12 I agree with some of your points but just from the sheer exposure/opportunity bschool kids get I’ll bet that BBA is better just from an IB standpoint. And you could argue statistics and everything but ask any college student here (even professors) and they would argue that the bschool is the place to be if you want a better chance at IB. Heck, some banks that recruit on campus won’t even accept your application if you aren’t in the bschool.

However, I do agree with your overall assessment that for OP’s case BBA just doesn’t sound feasible.

@msport Headsup, IB recruiting starts mid August and ends September (for most BB/EB) if you’re interested in that start networking second semester sophomore year and get your connections especially if you’re going to compete as a non-target student. Not sure about the program of Emory’s econ program but from what it seems like its overshadowed by the business school here.
