<p>“Do we need to compare the alumni from each school?”</p>
<p>Yes, by all means compare them, right here. Just make sure that, for Penn, you list only WOMEN, and only those WOMEN who graduated from Penn’s Arts & Sciences college. As undergraduates only.That way you are comparing apples to apples.</p>
<p>Wellesely people can make their own list, but it would certainly include: Madame Chiang Kai-shek, Hillary Clinton, Madeleine Albright, Nora Ephron, Ali MacGraw, Cokie Roberts, Diane Sawyer.</p>
<p>So by all means Columbiahopeful! please list here the noteworthy women alums of Penn’s undergraduate College of Arts & Sciences only, and we can all compare as you suggested.</p>
<p>“all of the statistics favor Penn.”</p>
<p>The statistics you posted indicate to me that there would be a huge overlap in the capabilties of your fellow students at these two schools, to such extent that this should clearly be a minor consideration at best.</p>
<p>Moreover, do the Penn stats you posted apply only to women who attend Penn’s College of Arts & Sciences? Or is Wharton also included? Is Penn’s Engineering College also included? Are men attending Penn’s Arts & Sciences college also included? If so, you are not comparing apples to apples, in any event.</p>
<p>“And Penn has a far better reputation where it matters…”</p>
<p>That is by no means clear to me based on my own business experience, as I posted previously.</p>
