[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] Your anecdotes don't change the overall statistics. You also can't detach the name brand from the people who attend the top schools. Statistically those are people more driven, hard working, and intelligent. [/quote] This is quite a huge fallacy. So many of these students are at "top schools" because of luck and the situations they were born into - wealth and privilege and entitlement.[/quote] With this attitude, everything is because of pure luck and no hard work matters. But we do have many many middle class families and minority families that send their kids to top colleges and have great success in their lives. You seem stuck in your excuses. [/quote]
