竞赛简介

AboutWGHS

沃顿全球高中投资大赛（沃顿商赛）是针对9-12年级高中生的在线投资模拟商赛。在导师的指导下，学生们4到7个学生为一小组。小组团队一起学习、合作、沟通、冒险、多元化股票投资结构，做公司金融分析，行业金融分析和相关虚拟资金投资。

团队模拟管理客户资产，在10周时间内，需要学生进行公司、行业、经济分析，选择投资计划，以期实现客户的投资目标。大赛配备了经过批准的股票清单（选择了一些国内外股票）和沃顿投资模拟器（WInS），可以让买卖股票的学生制定投资策略，分析行业和公司， 并使用10万美金的虚拟现金建立投资组合。

The Wharton Global High School Investment Competition is a free, online investment simulation for high school students (9th to 12th grade) and teachers. Students work in teams of four to seven, guided by a teacher as their advisor. Together, they learn about teamwork, communication, risk, diversification, company and industry analysis, and many other important aspects of investing.

Within 10 weeks, students in teams used the approved stock list and WInS (Wharton Investment Simulator) to invest with $100,000 and complete a report for a given case study.

05难度与含金量Competitiveness

难度极高，含金量极高：全球高中生金融/商赛顶流，全球只有50支队伍晋级，但参赛价值极高，即使没有进入复赛，参赛经历纳入个人简历/课外活动中也是极具亮点；若学生担任队长，那么对于申请沃顿商学院夏校以及美国藤校及顶尖大学更是加分多多。

往年参赛学生成绩：2022-23申请季Sofia同学连续两年担任沃顿商赛队长，尽管遗憾未能晋级，但仍凭借包括该活动在内的一系列商赛及领导力活动最终录取就读CMU卡耐基梅隆大学商学院（卡耐基梅隆大学US News综排Top 22，本科商学院专排Top 5）。

Extremely competitive but extremely helpful for college application: Only top 50 teams will be selected as semifinalists based on the strength of their final reports. However, this also means it will add much highlight to applicants' resumes/ ECA profiles even if not eligible for semifinals. If students can compete as the team leaders, it will even be more helpful for appkying for Wharton summer programs and top US universities and Ivy schools.

Past student application result: Sofia who applied during 2022-23 was accepted by CMU Undergraduate Business Program (CMU is ranked top 22 by US News, and its undergraduate business program is ranked top 5).
