Harvard or Penn (Wharton) undergrad?

There are some other posts on this, but they are quite old. I d like to get a more up-to-date perspective. I am a senior applying to colleges this year. Interested in IB. What about about Wharton vs YP? Would it even be worth considering YP over Wharton?

I'm at wharton, I love it! I couldn't decide at first, but after coming here, I honestly couldn't have seen myself anywhere else.

It's such an easy question: liberal arts vs. practical business training?

 

Ummm...let me think, no you shouldn't submit them. Why tf even bother?! You will most likely get in, but there is like a 99% chance you will end up choosing Harvard over these two anyway.
