America's top business schools are filled with students training to be the next generation of CEOs.
Jonathan McEuen, a second-year Wharton MBA, pulls 19-hour days, starting his morning at 5 AM and then collapsing at midnight. In addition to attending classes, he's launching a medical technology startup and is co-president of the Wharton Scotch & Whiskey Club. He schedules his days down to the minute, balancing the demands of school against the rest of his life.
It's a lot of work, but similar to what students at the other top business schools, including MIT, Columbia and Yale, experience.
To get a glimpse of what life is like for a Wharton MBA, we asked McEuen to take a camera around with him for a day.
5:00 AM: Time to wake up. This is the view from my apartment in Center City. I'm just across the river from campus, so I often bike to school.
I've nailed down a pretty good morning routine. I spend 15 minutes reading news, 30 minutes coding (I'm teaching myself iOS development and web development), 15 minutes reading emails and 30 minutes on coursework.
6:30 AM: Then I head to a spinning class at Body Cycle Studio. I try to exercise 4-5 days a week, on top of biking outside.
