[quote=Anonymous]I don't think parents and many kids who are influenced by their parents realize how relatively unimportant the undergrad school is when it comes to pursuing a career. It does not mean a rinky dink college is as good as any of the better schools but more that one does not need to go to an elite school to fare well in terms of a career. My daughter went to what might be categorized as a "B" level school for undergrad after being rejected at Stanford. She then went to a med school in the US which would also be categorized as average. She is now doing her residency at Stanford in one of the best programs in the country for her chosen specialty. The important thing is to do well academically at the undergrad program that one attends.[/quote]
