sloan vs. wharton

<p>Wharton is better for finance. Sloan is better for technology management. </p>

<p>What’s nice about Sloan (and MIT in general) is that, once you’ve been admitted to MIT, you can pick and choose whatever you want to major in. As long as you can complete the work, you will be awarded the degree. So if you come in thinking you want to major in EECS but then find out that you’d rather get a Sloan degree, you just do it. At Penn, you can’t just ‘decide’ one fine day that you want to go to Wharton and then just go. If you weren’t already in Wharton, you have to get admitted to Wharton, and that’s no cakewalk. </p>

<p>However, personally, the differences between the two program are slight. I would worry about first getting in, and if you can get into both, then you can decide. But if you can only get into one (or none), then the point is moot.</p>
