<p>you’re discounting the rest of the his post, which cites advantages specific to the University of Pennsylvania, such as living near Philly and receiving a “special scholarship.” </p>
<p>but all else equal, I don’t think it’s necessarily fair to compare the admissions process of Wharton with those of HYP. I think Wharton looks for a considerably different set of skills and experiences, such as mathematical ability and proven interest in business. just my opinion, but I believe that Wharton would be far more impressed with a successful business EC than would HYP.</p>
<p>sure, academically, Wharton students are probably on par with HYP kids. but college admissions evaluate far more than just academics.</p>
