[quote=Anonymous]If it is about direct ROI, it does not matter for the majority of fields. If it is about academic fit specifically intellectual prowess and ambition among the majority of peers, yes where you go matters a lot. The 15-20 schools with the highest percent of 99th %ile kids (we tracked it well before covid, when tests were required) also happen to overlap almost perfectly with highest endowment per student and highest percent of undergrads who pursue MD, JD, phD. These are the peers our kid wanted and frankly needed to be around; we picked accordingly and had Oxford in the back pocket if a top 10 had not worked out. The experience has been incredible, two different ivies, majority of undergrads are highly academic in and outside of classes, with professors who are world class! Worth each cent![/quote]
