<p>Excellent Essay and Teachers Recommendation.</p>

<p>you are fine man. i would not worry about it</p>

<p>well, what can I say. You have a great chance :P</p>

<p>you have a really good chance...just out of curiosity, what company did you intern for?</p>

<p>May depend upon your choice of Educational Consultant according to an earlier posted article. You are well qualified and any grad school would be blessed to have you, but, as Wharton may be the best in the U.S., it would be wise to apply to several business?finance?economics programs. Consider Chicago, Northwestern & other Ivies for economics, & Virginia, Michigan NYU (Stern) & Emory for business. Although you may be a natural for MIT. Good luck!</p>

<p>thank you all for taking the time to reply. I have applied to 4 ivies and 2 non-ivies with great business programs (NYU and Emory). Although my choice is obviously with the ivies because of their on-campus recruitment opportunities. Just out of curiosity, how does Yale, Harvard, and Princeton match up against Wharton in terms of i-banking recruitment?</p>

<p>More comments please</p>

<p>you have absolutely no chance to get into Wharton. Just quit now.</p>

<p>All of the big wall street banks come to Penn first for their recruitment. Traditionally, that's the way that it's done. As a result, half of wall street is from Penn. Penn is extremely well connected with Wall Street and all the big financial centers such as London and Hong Kong through it's academic programs and alumni network. You can get recruited for ibanking from Harvard, Yale, and Princeton of course. You might have to research a bit more for those opportunities. It all depends on how well you do at the school that you attend. If you have a decent GPA at Penn, then you'll get an ibanking job if that's what you want to do. You probably meet more people at Penn who are like you. Half of my friends that I graduated from are now bankers on wall street. It's really really easy if you go to Penn. If you go through the business courses at Penn, you'll also have an advantage over people who are from other schools because you're more used to the environment. I have a friend from Harvard who's also working on wall street as an ibanker, but she had a hell of a tough time competing because she just didn't have enough business background when she started. Same is true for consulting.</p>
