Penn does not belong in that top group.  Not even Wharton.  Yale has far more prestige.[/quote]

Penn is below Uchicago, Hopkins and Yale for sure… 
Penn belongs in group w / Columbia [/quote]

Nope.  Penn is academically superior.  #1 undergrad business but also top tier across undergrad programs.  In addition, their business school is #1 for MBA, law school #5, and medical schools top #3 (no longer ranked but almost always top 2-3 in past decade).

Penn’s closest rival is Harvard when you really dig into it.[/quote]

If you have to "really dig into it"...maybe Penn doesn't have the same prestige as HYPSM.[/quote]

The sophisticated already know that Penn has surpassed Yale.  That was a polite way of telling the uninformed to look it up.  Penn excels at STEM, business, law, and medicine, things people care about.  If you want to study art history, go to Yale.[/quote]

Why do people who get into both Penn and Yale usually pick Yale?[/quote]
