Due to grade inflation, don’t assume that going to a Penn State will afford you a better GPA than Chicago. There is a reason for the term “Harvard Curve”. In fact, I would conjecture that the average GPA for the MBA students at both schools lies between 3.45-3.65, possibly slightly higher at Chicago and slightly lower at Smeal.
