Chill out with the posts. There is no reason for you to be wondering what a competitive graduating GPA is from Wharton. Sounds like you're a typical insecure and type A kid that will end up at a BB or MBB. Just go to the school you felt most comfortable at and have fun. At top schools you will find kids that study all day and finish with a 3.5, but you will also find kids never studying that finish with a 3.9. Just go have fun.

 

Went to W. Average GPA is prob a 3.3, no clue what "competitive" means. You can get an interview at BB's with a 3.6 if you network and you won't with a 3.8 if you don't in many cases. Competitive at Apollo is prob a 3.9, competitive at Sterne Agee is...less.

Wtf is with this "will I have to replace socializing with studying" nonsense? Manage your work load, take >= 1 joke class a semester, get ahead on the rest so you're not too fucked come exam time. Just like any other college. If you pay-as-you-go studying, you won't be missing weekends, and you can pay-as-you-go socializing. Place is a college, not a monastery, and there's degenerates as far as the eye can see
