Yowza. If you were thinking about going to Emory, take Iron Maiden's warning and run to the hills

UGA also dropped. Clearly the entire Atlanta market dropped and is now TTT, everybody move out of Georgia

Especially seeing how hard they were trying to raise their LSAT median and such this cycle. Ah well, next year.

did you all see the employment at graduation stat? UGA is at 83% but Emory is all the way down near 65%.... scary... maybe its self-selection out of the ATL/GA market but i kind of doubt it...

Expect to see 1Ls self-immolating on the library steps.

MrAnon · Post by **MrAnon** » Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:38 pm

LOL. Another 8 place drop like that and it becomes a T2.

What caused the horrendous drop in the rankings? Was it the national reputation? Did NYC placement decline? Is US News now including home city crime statistics?

MrAnon · Post by **MrAnon** » Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:41 pm

65%??? Is that true?

A 166/3.01 is golden to Emory this year while 168/2.9s are trash. good call emory, let me know how that works out for your next year.

I thought overvaluing GPA vs. LSAT was their "thing."

valuing a 3.01/166 over a 2.99/167 is a sure fire way to never increase your medians.

Oh yeah. I didn't actually read the #s closely.

They sure don't overvalue their ranking.

Did it drop in the rankings due to employment problems? Given how schools can manipulate their employment stats, it does seem Emory actually suffered and that they couldn't cover it up...

What's that you say?!

Slow and bizarre selection process... See you later Emory.

Their (extraordinarily slow) admissions communication--including the fact that no one was available to talk to me the first 4 times I called--prevented me from ever being able to consider Emory when I was going through.

By the time I got their (very generous and competitive) scholarship, I already had to commit elsewhere.
