Not sure the way you wrote U Chicago and NorthWestern bothers me so much...

 

Agree with other posters, please stop. Anyways, this list isn't accurate. A kid from any ivy, Stern, etc. will still outperform Kelley, Wisconsin, or Purdue even if its halfway across the country.

 

It's meant to be a forum for MBA schools. Not a pointless ranking thread for "high school seniors looking to work in Chicago"

Note to OP: Wisconsin is obviously the biggest target. I think it can beat out any wharton undergrad for a spot in Chicago.
