Incoming Freshman - Best Wharton Clubs?

Hi all,

I'm an incoming freshman at Wharton. I've been reading a lot of WSO lately, and was wondering if anyone had an idea of what the various finance clubs are at Wharton and how they compare to one another in terms of investment focus, structure, competitiveness, and (of course) exits. I'm also interested in club culture - while I'd love to go to the most competitive club I also want to make friends.

Additionally, I'd really appreciate it if anyone at Wharton could speak to how club recruitment will take place this year and what people are looking for in a freshman applicant.
