Hey guys,
I really want to attend an Ivy League school, and am working very hard for that. In fact I am even considering applying early decision to Upenn, Wharton. But I really want to know what life at an Ivy League is like, especially at Wharton? How much work, freetime etc....so I can make the right choices."

What makes you think all Ivy Leagues are alike? In terms of location, they range from small town to the middle of Manhattan. In terms of campus feel, they have very different campus feels. Frankly, if you stripped off the Ivy League label, they'd be just 8 of many excellent schools -- and you could re-group those schools in all different ways based on similarity of overall experience.

Why the interest in Ivy League, when the Ivy League is just a football conference -- and what would make you think that the Ivy League day to day experience would be appreciably different from that of other elite schools?
