<p>I get it now. She was rejected by Penn and can’t let it go. </p>
<p>But I hereby withdraw my offer to settle it on the mat. I’ve seen the chicks at Barnard. Although a 3-time state finalist, I wouldn’t have a chance.</p>
<p>the median salary thing doesn’t for sure mean MIT business grads “make more.” I’m not sure but wouldn’t the MIT student be more likely to go to business school or get other degrees?</p>
<p>Well, considering that most of the Sloan guys go into consulting, and therefore don’t get as large bonuses as the Wharton Kids, who are predominantly in banking, do, they actually end up making half of what the Wharton kids make. That median salary does not include bonus figures and is very decieving as a result. If you look at the median total compensation of kids from both schools, I would not be suprised if Wharton came out ontop by $30k to 40K (since some Whartonites also end up in consulting, accounting etc, and some Sloanies end up as bankers). You should also take into consideration that Sloan is 1/10th the size of Wharton. Lastly, kids at Wharton have the potential to become uber earners, earning above 200k (after bonuses) if they work for PE firms or hedgefunds right out of college; such oppertunities, depending on the firm, are either much much rarer or non-existant at Sloan and that would skew median compensation towards Wharton even further because the bulk of that compensation is in the form of bonuses. </p>
<p>But you should never get into an industry because of money; you’re supposed to love the field, brother !</p>
<p>^Trust me. As long as the field is green (as in Benjamins), I’ll love it.</p>
