Trump's "MBA"?

Trump has allowed rumors to persist that he was the "top" student in his class at Wharton.  But the truth, of course, is a different matter:




An "examination of Trump’s own academic record yields a distinctly
unflattering picture of the celebrity businessman. Among other things,
Trump has allowed the media to report for years that he graduated first
in his class at Wharton, despite strong evidence that this is not true
and indications that he was, in fact, an undistinguished student.

Trump
did not go to Wharton’s prestigious MBA program. Rather, he received an
undergraduate degree offered by Wharton to University of Pennsylvania
students. And Trump didn’t attend Wharton for a full four years.
Instead, he transferred there after spending his first two undergraduate
years at Fordham, the Jesuit university in the Bronx."
