<p>I know this is true in terms of academics, but is it also true socially? Do different schools integrate easily or are their wharton/nursing/engineering/college cliques? I am particularly interested in wharton vs. the college. It seems that wharton has a lot of athletes and internationals. Any normal people there? also is there more hw at one school versus the other. Along the same lines is penn hard?</p>
<p>what's a normal person? we're all rather unique - that's why we're here.</p>
<p>there are cliques relative to the fact that you make friends that are in your classes, but there's plenty of racial / religious / club / activity cliques too, just as you would expect at any other school.</p>
<p>homework is plentiful - that's why you're here; you'll get more problem sets in a quantitative class, and more readings in a qualitative class.</p>
<p>is it hard? i dunno, are you getting your tutition dollars' worth if it isn't hard?</p>
<p>While there are some outliers (wharton tools, college dirty hippies, engineers with their shirts tucked into their jeans), the vast majority of students all blend in completely with each other. I don't really know what school they're in until they give me their email address or something.</p>
<p>You're all in the same dorms and have each other as roommates. Wharton "clubs" (business frats, interest groups like wharton china business society) are open to all undergraduates.</p>
<p>Penn is indeed One University more often than not</p>
<p>when i go to to sleep at night at 3 am after 6 hard hours at the library, I think how painful each of them was, but conversely, I think about how many more state schoolers/Cornell big reds that night's studying allowed me to climb over</p>
<p>^^^ </p>
<p>What?!? Where did that come from?</p>
<p>the hateful bowels of my elitist meglomania</p>
