[quote=Anonymous]I went to UC Davis even though I got into UC Berkeley. I had a scholarship to Davis but also it was just a better fit. No regrets, and also no one cares now that I'm in my late 30s and at the top of my second career (did fine in my first career but changed paths at age 30). I am in a position to hire and would rather see a candidate who did well in school and wrote a great application, than a candidate who went to a "name." Also, people kid themselves that schools are known nationally: there is always weight given to the local school even if it's not ranked. Most employers in CA have never heard of the East coast privates. [/quote]
