[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Penn's prestige mainly come from their USNews ranking. Same as Princeton when compared with other top schools.[/quote] +1, in terms of academic outcomes Penn does not impress as much. Very low on Rhodes Scholars for a school of their size. Wharton is a beast and fuels the money machine of Penn thought.[/quote] Keep in mind that Penn typically beats Duke in rankings that are more outcome oriented too, which is largely why Forbes and the WSJ also rank Penn higher than Duke and in the top 10. Penn's grads are going into the financial sector at higher rates, as was noted, which does help Penn keep earnings higher overall, so the comparisons are not always fully fair and apples to apples. Penn is clearly a better overall university than Duke though. Its professional schools, in particular, are better across the board. It is a closer call for undergrad.[/quote]
