What is making you chose Tepper over SC?
hey eeter,
nice to see you on this thread... for one thing, I want to do MC after graduation. With the market the way it is and competition for MC growing stronger by the minute, I believe that Tepper has the stronger brand amongst the M/B/B. I am also still considering finance, according to my cousin, who's an MD at Citigroup, because of Tepper's quant focus, they are pretty highly regarded in the finance circle eventhough its not a top10 school. Another reason is USC is such a commuter school, I dont think you can really network (for me at least) if I always wanted to go home at 5pm. Oh yeah, and as an Asian guy living in LA, too many of my friends went to SC and I just cant stand their cockiness when the Trojans win football game!
Other reasons:
Tepper gave me 12k
Jame Frick on the Admissions team is a pleasure to deal with
For USC:
the girls!!!!!
Kelley from Admissons is also a pleasure to deal with
the weather! ( I was in Pitt for my interview in October and it was 30 degrees)
What are your plans? You set on going to Tepper yet? Im still waiting to get off 2 waitlists
