[quote=Anonymous]The abstract for the article is in front of the National Bureau of Economic Research paywall; reading the paper itself costs $5. The gist seems to be that going to a selective school has not apparent benefit for guys. The guys who went to selective schools would have done well, anyway. When women go to selective schools, they're more likely to go to grad school or professional school. They earn about 14% more but are 4% less likely to get married.
