where did you get this crap ranking from? if anything HBS business econ phd is the most prestigious in all of econ or finance. also, major lol at putting caltech in the ranking.

i think you rate Harvard BusEc too high

it's part of the top 3 in my eyes

MIT, H BusEc, Stanford EAP

if you're a prestige whore then MIT is still ahead

no. harvard business econ phd only accepts 2%, gives better funding, and provides better exit opps. those guys routinely get teaching jobs at the top b-schools in the world, and i'm sure top hedge fund jobs are available as well.

exit opps are dependent on how you perform on the job market

academics aren't shallow enough to let you have a job just because you're from HBS

you can place at top 2 fron Northwestern's econ Phd if you're really a star

no one works at a hedge fund from the phd

HBS's busec program is only now a top program on level with Harvard econ

historically it was the less prestigious and selective program

MIT econ > HBS busec still

besides they make you take MBA courses for the BusEc PhD, no one wants to do that shit

go look at placement at top econ and finance faculty. the vast majority are from the same 3 or 4 programs. once in a while, you will see the guy who did his phd at some random school get a gig at wharton or booth, but it's very rare.

hbs business econ phd students are more impressive than MIT econ.

yes

not sure how to compare to harvard med but mathematically the econ phd's are probably superior

definitely much stronger students than YLS/HLS on average, consider the rigorous UG background needed and the small sizes of the programs compared to YLS/HLS
