Hi,
Thanks for the greetings.
All 4 schools that I was admitted to are great schools, and I can tell you that I would have been more than happy to study in each one of them.
There were actually 2 reasons for choosing Wharton over HBS, each of them alone was a sufficient basis for me to make my decision.
The first reason was personal. The second reason was what is called “the fit”. I visited both schools, sat in classes, talked to students and alumni. Overall I felt that at Wharton I could get the most out of my MBA experience. To me, this means an appropriate balance between academics, extra-curricular activities, leadership opportunities, guest lectures of top business leaders, projects, etc (there are soooo many of those- you will not believe), and… yes… having a life in between. I felt that at Wharton I would be able to maximize this set of opportunities. Don’t get me wrong- you will have to work extremely hard in all schools, but there is something about the atmosphere at Wharton, the people, the team-oriented environment etc… that made Wharton the right place for me.
You will actually be surprised- I am not the only one at Wharton who was admitted to H/S, and I also know of people who were admitted to a top 5 school, and decided to go to “lower ranked” school- for many different reasons. Looking at the top 10 schools,I think that you really can’t go wrong. It is now your job to find out which school is the right one for you.
Hope this helps,
