Seems like there's a lot of comparisons between Cornell and Duke and/or Ross these days for IB.

I posted a comment to a Duke vs Cornell thread the other day, if you swap out Duke for Ross, it's a very similar argument.
It really comes down to Cornell's highly structured IB path vs Ross' MBA experience. Whatever you value more.
Congrats on the two great acceptances!
Thanks, much appreciated
cornell is better for ib but may be a boring MBA experience
Agree Cornell probably marginally better
What's Ross? Lol. Go to Cornell.
Cornell's IB immersion is top notch I hear, and places really well on the street. The others place decently also, but Duke is more of a consulting school. Ross is a decent mix, but you won't have as many alums in New York.
If you want NYC, go to Cornell. If you are interested in Chicago, go to Ross. If you are indifferent, go to Cornell.
