<p>If you had the opportunity to go to Fordham on a 34k scholarship, live in a $1 million midtown apartment, and have an internship at a hedge fund OR just go to UPenn w/o any of the above, with which would you be happier?</p>
<p>MAN! The former one is very desirable.
The latter one is dumb and idiotic.
The scale and magnitude of opporunties presented in both situations are just incomparable. Only an idiot would choose the latter one for the sake of prestige.</p>
<p>Let’s see 1 million apartment sounds really good, considering that there’s a lot within walking distance, and all the connections for living in Midtown and going to a hedge fund.</p>
<p>Clearly the first one, even if it was only Fordham and a 34k scholarship.</p>
<p>I wouldn’t choose the latter b/c of prestige, just because I don’t want to work at a hedge fund (finance/business bores me–actually I don’t know or care what a hedge fund is) and I don’t want to live in NY for college.
It would be an amazing life for someone, but not me. So I’d choose Penn.</p>
<p>Ooooorrrrr…I could stalk the person who actually did get the million dollar apt, gag him/her and ship him/her off to Siberia and then live in the apt. during vacations while I’m going to school in Pennsylvania. I’d then sell the person’s hedge fund internship and buy myself an island.</p>
<p>HEDGE FUND IS LIKE A MILLION DOLLAR BABE, ONCE IN A LIFE TIME OPPORTUNITY.
U PEN, HE IS TALING ABOUT U PEN WARTON
HE IS A BUSINESS CRAZED PERSON.
THEREFORE, THE FORMER IS INFINITELY BETTER.
AS FOR INTELLECTUALS, UM… ANY SCHOOL IS GOOD ENOUGH… UM… GOOD ENOUGH.
Hey bro, one day you become investment banker manager or something, don’t forget to offer me a job? XD</p>
<p>pharm, planning on being a hedge fund manager, not an IBer :D</p>
<p>thx guys, i knew that i was benefiting by taking the Fordham deal (but then again i didn’t have much of a choice)</p>
<p>I don’t want a million dollars. Good luck to you though.</p>
<p>i would go to Upenn because you have to commute for Fordham</p>
