Penn or UChicago?

I have never gotten the impression from UPenn students and grads that UPenn is laid back.
The UChicago core is rigorous but I would suspect that UPenn classes are demanding no matter what the subject.

Cities - I prefer Chicago over Philly. The lake makes it heaven! You could request the Shoreland dormitory and get a room with a lake view. That’s awesome! (I guess I have a bias b/c I had a cousin who was brutally murdered in Philly but as I have said before, crime can happen anywhere).

Go to UPenn if you prefer and apply to Chicago Med school later - just an idea.
