[quote=Anonymous]Great! Isn't the purpose of going to elite schools to network with the rich? Now, when my kids don't get into Harvard and have to go to "lesser" schools, at least they will get to hobnob with the kids from elite private schools! But seriously, admissions offices are always saying that they have many times as many qualified applicants as they can accept. So all those superqualified kids rejected from Harvard are going to Dartmouth, and all those rejected from Dartmouth are going to Vanderbilt, or whatever. Yes, there's a difference between the education you get at a top 10 school and, say, Florida State, but moving 10 or 20 spots up or down the ranking list is not going to significantly change the opportunities available to you.[/quote]
