[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Penn has a top 3 med school, top 3 mba program, #4 ranked law school.  Top undergraduate business school.  Currently ranked #6 national university.  USNWR.

The only comparable universities are Harvard and Stanford with such broad strengths.[/quote]

Penn is broadly strong in ways that Northwestern isn't.[/quote]

And Penn is on elite recruiting target lists that NU is not. Penn has better premed by far, with its hospital right on campus. Philly is a great city, Penn is a 2mile walk to center city/rittenhouse shopping/reading terminal market: all nice areas! Penn is not IN the city. NU is in Evanston, 35 min from chicago, not at all the same vibrant setting. 
Penn is more intellectually focused, NU is more sports focused. 
Penn has paid research opportunities for all undergrads; NU only more recently jumped on the undergrad research bandwagon, but for premeds the medically related research is not on campus like it is at Penn.
Almost all students who get into both chose Penn. NU has a lot of chip on the shoulder just missed out on ivy mindset. [/quote]
