Go to Wharton or Reapply HBS?

Considering either applying Wharton R3 or trying to reapply to HBS for R1 next year. Have decent-ish profile (Graduated honors from BIG 10, 750 GMAT, UMM PE, Top BB, great community involvement). Any thoughts / considerations?

Edit: for context, HBSGuru gives me 30% chance at HBS, 50%+ at Wharton
