@ OP: I would also post your question on the Penn forum if I were you.

I wouldn’t say that undergrad at Duke is “much better” than at Penn. Duke does have a distinct focus on undergrads, but Penn also devotes a lot of resources to undergrad. I agree Duke has a greater focus, but not a much greater focus. Yes, Penn devotes a lot of their resources to Wharton, but they also devote a lot of resources to their other programs. My friend who attends is quite pleased with the quality of undergraduate education there.
