请问,沃顿的课程相对于HBS或Chicago有什么特点?

i have to pass this questions to somebody who's taken classess at all these 3 schools.

学校的career service如何?

should be very helpful.

俱乐部都有哪些?

i can't recall every single one. so i did a quick google search. the list here looks complete. http://wga.wharton.upenn.edu/clubs.asp

最大的?

no idea. maybe wine club? my favorite!

最好的?

haven't seen any "business week"-like ranking system. my membership includes wine, PE/VC, tech, healthcare, china, wing's, outdoor, japan, entrepreneurship and a couple others. you won't be surprised finance club and consulting club have tons of people.

中国学生最多的?

greater china club, that's a given.

最有意思的?

haven't seen any "business week"-like ranking system either. my favorite include wine and aviation.

谢谢!

you're welcome. good luck!

以下是引用beyond08在2008-6-20 15:34:00的发言：

I heard from someone that Wharton prefers candidates who have long time W/E.

Is that mean most of the admitted students from mainland China have around 5 years W/E.

Then I'm curious about the background or even some details about those who only have less than 3 years W/E and finally admitted by Wharton. Where they came from and what made them outstand in the application pool?

Many thanks~

I don't think long time w/e is a must - the ages of all admitted students vary from 18 to 43(or 46?). I even met some students who have no w/e at all! but they are really smart and have great potential. Frankly speaking I don't think knowing other people's backgrounds can increase your chance. So if you feel ready, just go apply.

请教诸位前辈：

之前一直关注HBS，因为觉得自己是全能型，以综合（ALL-AROUNDED）见长的申请者，而WHARTON给我印象是FINANCE很强大（恰恰是我不擅长的），所以即使知道WHARTON很棒，但叶没考虑它太多。可最近又看了些信息，似乎WHARTON也很喜欢全能发展型的选手，且也和HBS一样开始喜欢招年轻毕业生。

我想请哪位前辈能劳驾看下我的CV，给我些建议。我明年本科毕业，打算直接申请。

谢谢。

在这里纠正一下，Wharton是非常综合的学校，并非只有finance一枝独秀。如果大家关注过US NEWS的专业排名，就会看到wharton在各个领域几乎都是名列前茅。虽说排名不代表一切，但也值得参考。据我所知，除了finance外，wharton在management,health care等方向都实力不俗。

关于wharton招年轻申请人还是成熟申请人，真是个有意思的话题。MBA 10的同学中，年龄最小的18岁，最大的四十多岁，range很大. 所以，无论年龄大小，只要有很好的potential，都有机会被录取。不过，我遇到的大多数同学都具有一定工作经验，那些刚踏出校门就被录取的学生，真的是非常有才华，都是young genius，而且很ambitious. 如果你属于那个group，就大胆申请吧。
