Sorry confidentialcoll, I’m not buying it. Both are great for undergrad research. Research dollars shows the overall scale of activities conducted. Both schools have a large number of grad schools and a wide range of majors. So research opps are plentiful

Check [CURF - research](Penn CURF) for Penn’s info.

Either place will serve young students well.

Re the social scence, more than slipper has noted this. Many students have stated this - on this board and on others. I think it’s a natural outcome of being in NYC vs being in - say Ithaca or Hanover. There is simply more to be involved in away from campus. It’s the delight and downside of going to college in NYC.
