<p>At Penn we have the “One-University” concept. That means that you can take classes at any of our 12 graduate schools. Penn Med is the oldest med school in the country and is far superior to Yale Med (my dad went to Harvard med and told me that). Penn Med also takes most of its kids from Penn, so you will have an advantage if medicine is your thing. Penn also recently built a new $80 million nano-technology center, if that is your thing Penn is the place to be. As an undergraduate at Penn, you can take classes at Penn Med now that will help you enormously. Penn generally also has stronger science departments, particularly if biology is your thing. You can also branch out and take classes at Wharton (perhaps you would like to learn about healthcare management, or know how to run the finances of your own practice), or classes at the law school to learn about bio-ethics. The opportunities are endless.</p>
<p>I, for instance, will be majoring in finance, but I will also minor in philosophy at the college just because it interests me.</p>
