Undergrad Transfer hopeful to Penn (and Others?)

Hi I'm a freshman at a top ten(ish) Undergrad business school and after a month I am sure I want to transfer for a variety of reasons. I know with a good GPA and the EC's I have, I stand a good shot at transferring to Wharton which has always been my dream school, but I'm not sure I want to hedge all my bets on that one school.

The other two I was looking at were Yale and Dartmouth because I have heard good things about their econ departments and that they have excellent alumni networks and job placement. I'm really into business but I'm not sure if I want to get farther from the more specific business like classes (management, finance, entrepreneurship) classes I can take here, to go somewhere where my only choice of majors would be econ. I know a lot of undergrad study is kinda bullshit in preparing for the business world, and I'm not concerned about my ability to get into these schools, and I know Penn is my first choice for transfer. Are Yale and Dartmouth worth it business wise? (Im at Villanova now...) Im realllly not a liberal arty kind of guy.

 

If you already know that Yale/Dartmouth have excellent job placement and no undergraduate business program, then what exactly are you asking?

If you consider less than 2% a good shot than sure, go for it

hahaha
