<p>There are a few posters on this thread who are just incorrect. Anybody who says Wake’s undergraduate teaching is lesser than Hopkins simply does not know his or her facts. Wake’s business school has been rated #1 in academic quality for the past 4 years. Also, Wake is known as ‘Work Forest’ because of its rigorous undergraduate teaching. Yes, Hopkins is ranked #13 and Wake is #25, but I know a few fellow students who chose Wake OVER Hopkins. I’m not saying Wake is a better school than Hopkins, but Wake kids are really, really smart, and its name and ranking should only continue to rise. Wake Forest offers a fantastic education, and the people who matter know great of a school Wake Forest is. Also, a lot of it depends on what you want to major in. As a business major, Wake Forest was a perfect fit for me. I wanted to go to a school that had my major, but at the same time, had the level of ‘prestige’ that I was looking for. In sum, a college decision decision depends on more than just one ranking, but on a number of different factors, and is different for each person. I think we can all agree on that.</p>
