[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Quality of the peer group is vastly different vs. non T20 IMO. [/quote] With holistic admissions and current preferences for athletes, first gen and pell grant eligible, this is not true, Lots if kids at T50 or even T75 who have stats for T20 but didn’t get in due to the aforementioned preferences, were hurt by average ecs, or college’s desire for geographical diversity.[/quote] The issue is do these kids ever get the jobs at Goldman Sachs, Blackstone, McKinsey, Bain in the numbers - on a per capita basis - compared to the top 25 schools? The answer is they don’t. At least not yet. Maybe that will change in the next decade. [/quote] I would be extremely disappointed if my kids ended up at a Goldman or a Blackstone, etc., so I'd say opinions differ about the "quality" of a peer group that is gunning in that direction. [/quote] Too many people give this crappy stock answer. I assume your kid would at least want to have the option to turn one of these jobs down vs never even remotely considered. For the life of me, I don’t know what for profit entity would pass your test…maybe Patagonia?[/quote] 💯 I think ppl want to know that an expensive T20 education may eventually result in an annual salary potential greater then the total cost of the education. Not that the kid needs to actually take that type of job but at least have the option. That is success.[/quote]
