Is Ivey Screwed?

Hi, I'm an incoming student to Western with AEO, and recently read some of the posts about Ivey on this forum

Has Ivey truly fallen off that hard? 

Should I try to transfer to QComm / Waterloo AFM (it's kinda late, but I was accepted to both, maybe I can try emailing them?)

Qcomm has more old money cachet would go there over Ivey which is full of second gen migrants

Don’t go to AFM unless you want to be in Chindia for 5 yrs

 

Doesn't that imply Ivey/AFM would be better given less nepo hires yet the same number of seats available for the school?

 
Funniest

i mean dude if you want to go to a program full of brampton goons & markham chingalings then be my guest mate

 

might honestly start putting laurier bba over ivey atp with how annoying some of u ivey kids are
