[quote=Anonymous]Penn is very strong in business and engineering. So that immediately gets the attention of a lot of 18 year old boys today. Who are also smart and disciplined. And there aren't a lot of them these days. As the parent of two boys, Penn was definitely on the list. But after visiting, eh. The Wharton culture is not for everyone. Wharton is probably the most New Jersey thing I've ever seen. Wharton is contemporary New Jersey. Stressful, unkind, hyper-competitive. And that drips into engineering too. If there are better alternatives, why bother with four years of that noise? So Penn quickly dropped off the list. But I get why Penn attracts a lot of interest - Wharton, engineering, old 90s rep for being a social, fun school. It's a very appealing school on paper. [/quote]
