[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Both Penn and Northwestern have a reputation as "pre-professional" schools in that a lot of students are aiming at becoming certain types of professionals or pursuing majors that they think will make them money later. Even so, Northwestern is tempered by "Midwestern nice," whereas Penn just seems to have a lot of free-floating anxiety and students there because they couldn't get into HYPSM (apart from some of the Wharton kids, for whom Penn might be a first choice but who are also often insufferable). Chicago (Evanston) is cold, but it's a far more interesting city than Philadelphia, plus Northwestern has its own beach. You can probably see where I'm going with this. [/quote] +1 on this. At NW you would get virtually all of the benefits you might get at Penn, with the added benefit of not being surrounded by the worst of Ivy-induced insufferableness.[/quote]
