This should be fun...

A constant theme on WSO is ranking BBs and EBs by tier. Can we take a minute to rank target schools by tier? Please don’t make this whole thread about UT vs Kelley (Or Kelley vs someone like it always is).

I thought we already came to a unanimous decision on this?

S+++ = Stern (Best business school in the world)

S++ = Kelley (They send 6 kids to moelis)

S+ = UVA (Cheaper than ivies and also better)

S = Wharton (Walmart brand Stern)

A = Harvard (they don't have a finance major)

C = Stanford (On the west coast so you can't go to NY)

D = Yale (Not that many banks come to campus)

F = Upenn CAS (Not good enough for the 2nd best business school?)

F- = LoW tIeR iViEs (why go to cornell when you can just kill yourself)

F-- = Baruch (Don't worry though it's close to wall street)
