[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Penn is not universally loved[/quote]

exactly. penn is not beloved by penn students. current students describe the culture as toxic grinders and wharton obsessed wannabes. my daughter (a legacy and humanities kid) spoke to many current penn students before decided (her dad went there too). she chose another well regarded school instead of penn because she was shook by her convos with current students. they talked about the competitive culture being very toxic to their mental health.

mmkay. I know my own two (2024&2027)and their friends have loved the challenge, the city close by, the ability to continue music and pursue engineering and premed. All their friends would pick it again too, despite how hard the classes are.  Covid closure for our elder son was the only negative. It is quite collaborative, and social opportunities on or off campus. They had less :toxic culture" than their friends at other T25s who reported much worse club culture. Top-5 med school is a breeze so far for the elder: he and the other ivy kids are finding it a repeat. His other Penn friends who are also in top schools are doing very well. You get what you pay for and preparation for professional school and life is what we paid for. [/quote]
