It's possible what you say could be misinterpreted. Also, I fool around sometimes so I might fall into that "jerk" category under some people's definition. Also it's a little embarrassing to be on a forum lol. It's pretty nerdy, I'm not gonna lie, bro.

Hi Hedgequant. The problem is that business programs are so small that everyone will know who everyone is if they post stuff here. Also, applicants going to business phds tend to have more idiosyncratic backgrounds which also gives away identifies. I can tell you that I know we had some good results (not talking about myself), especially in finance.

when you're at the crossroads, drop down on your knees, and beg the lord above to have mercy, if he please.

which book is best for conducting this analysis?

I can tell you that Philly is a dump, if location matters to you.

they ONLY accept health theorists, but you're still special.

i didnt apply to any programs in manhattan because of cost of living. If you have lived in NYC on a budget you know what I'm talking about and it's simply not worth it.

Peot i think the tradeoff in quality of life is highly worth it. If you think you don't value weather (like everyone who lives on the east coast does..), just wait till you move to CA. Your utility fxn will change and you will wonder how you ever lived anywhere else.

how would one do this without looking like a tool?

why are people on fora more uptight than the average person? I have never understood this. Some sort of self selection...

wow i thought brown rejected everyone.

BU aint bad!!

did anyone get into brown? Hey brown, the jerk store called...

Bargaining is the third stage that comes after anger but before depression. Hang in there man!

what a tough choice. I'd choose cal tech if you like the work they do, especially since the weather is so great.

I meant to ask your letter writers where they think your profile is competitive. Some people apply to 20. Its a lot of work, so I said screw it and applied to like 10. It depends how competitive you are in the schools to which you are applying.

the search on this forum is broken and retarded, so i don't blame you! But the best advice is to talk to professors, since they can better gauge everything about you than we can.

I wasn't referring to quality of life as it's related to income. :) But...if that is a HUGE factor for you (your MU of an extra unit of consumption at your current level is SO high) then you should go to Penn. But if other factors consider (like length of how long it will take you to complete the program, quality of offices for students, student happiness), then I would go UCSD.

For quality of life, UCSD by far
