upenn?

[georgeabraham]

hi,
i have recieved 3 admits for masters in ee. I am inclined to go for upenn rather than usc since I have been advised by a lot of people that if future intent is to work in management related areas then the advantage posed by upenn outweighs higher ranking of usc. plus the ivy league factor. I would like to know the views of others on this.
thank u

Remember rank includes stuff like what profs get paid etc, you need to only worry about how good the program is and how much research money goes to that school.

What are your GRE, GPA(rank of the school you are in or the name of the school if possible), research/job experience?

I am just trying to see what it takes to get into schools like upenn.

Thanks in advance and good luck!

georgeabraham, congratulations on your admits. You have excellent test scores. Any advice, tips or resources on the TOEFL would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

Wannabe, with such an academic record, who could say you don't deserve to in an Ivy League! Keep it up.
