Part 3: Wharton Visit
Some Pictures:
Huntsman Hall
Beautiful Walkway
Case Competition
Typical Classroom
Study Room
Overall Wharton Impressions:
The Good:
-Facilities: Huntsman Hall is "unbeevable." The study rooms have these flat screen monitors you can hook your laptop to, and you can use a stylus to write on that screen to input data
-"Wharton" brand
-Access to Wharton alumni network (bigger in business world than Yale or MIT)
-Huge faculty, wide array of electives to choose from
-Feeder school to many awesome companies, recruiting may be slightly easier
-Wharton is the crown jewel at UPENN, unlike Sloan at MIT
-Philly is warmer than Boston
-Campus Gym is huge, and right next to Huntsman
The Bad:
-Ginormous class size (not as close knit as Yale or MIT)
-Not super diverse (significant banking/consulting subsets)
-Culture of many students seem to be solely $$ driven
-grade non-disclosure in jeopardy
