[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Caltech’s reputation bends more towards scientific theory/inquiry rather than commercial application. So it’s more known for producing the thinkers rather than the industry titans. [b]A remarkable 40% of its graduates go on to get PhD's[/b].[/quote] Because they are otherwise unemployable ?[/quote] NP. Admit rates don’t mean as much to me, but regarding comments on industry success and employment: CollegeScorecard data includes only those recent alumni not attending grad school. It has Caltech alumni out-earning Harvard’s by nearly 30%. Normalizing Crunchbase’s most recent data by enrollment, Caltech has more funded start-up founders than any Ivy besides Harvard. This despite being more academically inclined (more likely to pursue future PhDs) than anywhere else by a vast margin (more than double anywhere except HMC, which it leads by *only* 40%). [/quote]
