Agree, Penn


Nope, just Wharton. Everyone else at Penn is pissed they aren't at Wharton and it makes for a miserable experience


You must be new money to think this. Many students at Penn genuinely want to be doctors, do drug research, work in policies, engineering, teaching, non-profit. Not everyone is trying to “get rich” like you are.”

+100

In addition Penn Engineering(Seas) grads make the highest average starting salary, over wharton too, and it has been this way for at least 4 yrs. Quant finance/other top finance, MBB, top tech all target Seas, as well as physics and math majors in CAS. Engineering is also the lowest admit rate among the 4 schools. It has been sub-3.5% overall ED plus RD together, for 4 yrs the Dean announces it evey yr. Of course its due to demand, with a large portion of the overall 70k apps aiming for the 400-450 spots in seas out of the incoming class size of 2430 total.

Is this Georgia the country? Definitely not the one with Atlanta.


Oh yes it is. PP is right.

If you want international prestige, go to Harvard and call it a year. Otherwise, you’re fine.

Duke = Williams > Penn > JHU = Northwestern > Penn State Altoona

+1, no one cares about American schools other than Harvard. H bomb just hits harder than other schools and that’s fine- does it mean Harvard is the best school in the US? Of course not. It just means it has the most cultural cache

There’s so many better schools for engineering. Wharton is one of one

This, Wharton is gauche, UChicago or MIT math/stats/physics majors, not so much.
