<p>Well, to respond to the OP, I think maybe UPenn’s success lies in Wharton. Maybe it’s not as distinguished in other areas compared to HYPS, etc. but Wharton is legendary.</p>
<p>When I visited the campus last year, I noticed that the buildings related to Wharton (or at least one–I think it was the study hall? I can’t remember, but it was definitely related to Wharton) were extremely well built and had all kinds of amenities and facilities, meaning that the university is investing heavily into that program. Lucky Wharton students! XD (But I digress.)</p>
<p>I also agree that UPenn is a dark horse. ;D It’s going to surprise people some day.</p>
