My Experience at Penn:
I mainly took upperclassmen classes and learnt a great deal from both the professors and guest lectures that they brought to class. It really deepened my interest and understanding in the areas of finance and consulting. I also took a class where I had the opportunity to consult for a healthcare growth company in the Philly area. At the same time, I was recruiting here and will be starting my career as a consultant back home. All in, I made immense progress on both academic and career fronts, and I couldn't have asked for a better exchange experience!
