Wharton Welcome WeekEnd


I was in Philly from April 6th to April 9th, as a part of the Wharton Welcome WeekEnd for the class of 2008. How was it ? Incredible !!

The activity-packed 4 day schedule was designed to give admits a flavor of Wharton life. So, in 4 days we attended a mock class, did a teamwork exercise, crawled the pubs in the area, went to a party every night, talked with alums, faculty, students and partners and saw Thomas Caleel wearing a tutu at Wharton Live !!

Waking up at 7:00 am and staying upto 3:00 am every night was a shock to my system.

In the team-building exercise, teams of 6 admits were asked to build a bridge of newspaper and tape. The bridge that balanced the most # of water bottles would win. Working with 5 strangers in a time-bound competitive environment was a revealing experience. Between the chaos, disagreements, "ahas" and panic we managed to build a winning bridge. But more importantly a winning team.

At the end of day, Wharton Welcome Weekend (WWW) convinced me that Wharton was the right school for me. I have paid my deposit and ready to matriculate in the fall.

I leave a response when I especially enjoy a post on a
site or if I have something to valuable to contribute to
the conversation. It's triggered by the fire displayed in the post I read. And on this post "Wharton Welcome WeekEnd". I was excited enough to post a thought ;-) I do have 2 questions for you if it's allright.
Could it be simply me or do some of these responses look as if they are coming
from brain dead individuals? :-P And, if you are posting on other sites, I would like to keep up with everything new you have to post.

Would you list every one of your communal sites
like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?
