Decisions are up in Login at uchicago.edu

<p>Actually from what I've heard from people on Wall Street and in consulting Wharton is up there with HYSP in recruiting for firms; Chicago, although it still does really well isn't near the level of the kind of feeder Wharton is.</p>

<p>From what I've heard, the students at Wharton are hypercompetitive(surprised?) and have little interest in anything outside of their preprofessional worlds. UChicago students are more interested in the knowledge they get from their liberal arts education than whether or not it will land them an interview at Mckinsey or Goldman Sachs. Broad stereotypes, of course, but along with the stuff others have mentioned I really do think that Wharton and Chicago are two completely different schools; as is Berkeley. </p>

<p>I'm not trying to disparage your choice in schools anyway, I'm just pointing out how curious it is that you will be choosing between those three schools.</p>

<p>Wow. When DH was at Wharton, the IB programs were considered the realm of those who had no better options than to slave away @ 100 hrs./wk. at a two-year associate training program. (They even took liberal arts grads! A good friend of our did this.) He looked at Big 8 accounting firms (yes, it was that long ago), decided it was not the life he wanted, and went the corporate route. Ultimately went to law school, did private practice and is now in gov't regulatory work, but finds his Wharton training invaluable -- you'd be amazed how little financial training a lot of lawyers have.</p>

<p>Did anyone else never get an email from Chicago about decisions being up?
Just curious.</p>

<p>Nope, no email.</p>

<p>My daughter noticed an email in her spam folder. Checked it and found it was Chicago telling her there was a decision. Likely your emails are in your spam folder, too.</p>
