[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I also didn't go to an Ivy and work with tons of Ivy people.  I honestly think that I'm the smart one because I got the exact same job as the Ivy folks without having to spend a fortune on the Ivy degree.  I get a kick out of it - you think you're so smart with your Ivy degree?  I went to public high school in a poor state and then got a scholarship to good (but not great) undergrad and law school and did well and now I'm in the same place you are.  Honestly, good for you that you did well at your state school and got a good job.  It sounds like you're fairly young (if you're still considering B-school), but the farther you get out from school, the less this matters.  And honestly, anyone looking down on you because you're not Ivy is an ass.  [/quote]

I'm PP: let me go ahead and correct myself and say "the further you get out from school" before some snarky person tells me that I would know the difference between further and farther if I had gone to an Ivy.[/quote]
