The Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania was ranked the best business school in the country this year....On average, graduates of these business schools reported starting salary and bonuses of approximately $155,671. Wharton graduates earned an average of $165,528 after graduation, the highest starting salary across these top-ranked business schools.

Wharton is where President Trump went to business school.
The enrollment in some of these schools is downright amazing.
Just under 2,000 in several of them.
The overall average is about 900 students for a two year program.
It’s almost like a separate university within a university.
Wharton removed DJT’s portrait from its hall of fame. I guess being elected leader of the Free World is something to hide in shame.
I’m disappointed. I went to Northwestern for my MBA. They were top 2 or 3 every year at the time. Dropped to 6th this year. Mostly known for marketing.
We had 3 different approaches: full time, night school while working full time, executive program on the weekend. I drove 2 hours twice a week to attend classes while working full time. Took me 3 years and I learned a lot about accounting and marketing, felt like I was helping teach the ops classes though. Didn’t feel I got the full impact that the full-timers got; but it has definitely opened some doors/opportunities for me that I wouldn’t have had otherwise.
They're talking about graduate programs. Trump got a bachelors degree.
One thing they REALLY need to start taking into account on all these rankings is where a schools grads overwhelmingly go.
If theyre largely going to places like NYC or San Francisco/Silicon Valley and another schools grads are largely going to America, then their salary numbers dont look nearly as flattering. $155,000 in NYC is not $155,000 in say, Atlanta. Not even close. In fact, somebody earning $100,000 in most of America is far wealthier and has a much higher standard of living than somebody making $155,000 in New York.....or New Jersey.....or Boston.....or LA.....or San Francisco.
The Caroline Channing character on '2 Broke Girls' also went to Wharton. Trump is smarter. But Channing is prettier.
They’re talking about graduate programs. Trump got a bachelors degree.

Had he gone for the MBA think of what he could have accomplished.
Don't you love it when the evil, corrupt morons, who have tried to pin every possible derogatory label on him (anti-semite--didn't work! racist--didn't work! liar--didn't work! psychotic--didn't work! you name it--didn't work!) say he's STUPID!
I've even heard them say he knows nothing about finance, business, and economics!
A man of obvious brilliance who dances circles around all of them!
He has proven time and again just how stupid and evil are those who seek his destruction--and the destruction of the USA.
my daughter was a biochemistry major, graduated 3 years ago. Now she’s in bus-school for the MBA. she’s laughing at it. My other daughter graduated 2 years ago, dual-major; mechanical engineering & finance. her engineering school had a business school on campus. the engineers referred to it as “high school”
Wharton is where President Trump went to business school.
***************
Yes, he earned a BS in economics. But the article is about MBA programs.
My late father received his MBA from Wharton in the late 1950s and was heavily recruited. His first job was for a major bank in NYC earning $6,000 per year. It paid considerably more than his second highest offer.
Very good point.
Also the article made no mention of accreditation. AACSB is the gold standard for business schools. For prospective students, its important to be aware of that. The point being, if you cannot attend one of these top schools you can still get a quality business education from an AACSB accredited school.
Re: “Trump got a bachelors degree.”
Thanks for posting.
That’s news to me.
I always assumed that undergrad business majors would say they went to the University of Pennsylvania, since it’s an Ivy League school.
That’s actually kind of deceptive for someone to say he went to “Wharton” since almost 100% of the people who hear that will assume you got your MBA there.
Probably not much more than his already considerable record of achievements.
Anti American globalist indoctrination camps.
I’m still planning to write a book about how MBA’s are destroying the world.
If business school is so easy it should be a trivial matter for them to make you a very wealthy person in no time at all.
