I have an interest in business schools. I have started looking at the top business schools in the United States and Wharton Business School at the University of Pennsylvania. What I know about a number of the top business schools in the United States is they specialise in specific areas. The Wharton School of Business specialises in marketing, so for those seeking a marketing major, Wharton could be the school for them.

Some of the famous alumni from Wharton Business School include President Donald Trump, Elon Musk, Warren Buffett and Peter Lynch. Ok, so two of those guys I respect and two I do not. Interestingly, both Buffett and Lynch are finance guys so their finance credentials are pretty good. I would tend to think Donald Trump has embellished his credentials somewhat, he would have been less than transparent about his grades but ultimately, he was there to learn how to run the family business.

Wharton Publishing offers some pretty decent reference books, I would be interested to know if these books are used as reference materials for class. I have flicked through these books at bookshops, the quality is good, I can see why they are on sale. I would be interested to know how many universities worldwide use these published books as learning tools. Does Wharton Publishing also provide the text and reference books for students or is this just a commercial venture, regardless, they have some pretty decent reference books that they publish.
