[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Frankly, I would not automatically be impressed with ANY of these colleges. It all depends on HOW they got in![/quote]

and WHAT they are studying [/quote]

To an extent. Pretty much any field (with possibly some exceptions) can be impressive if that's what they are interested and good in[/quote]

Pretty much any college is impressive then
[/quote]

You missed the part where I said it all depends on HOW the student got in[/quote]

This last how comment is just sad. Did someone less [i]deserving[/i] also get "your" promotion? [/quote]

You seem to have problems with reading comprehension [/quote]

So HOW is important but ultimately WHAT is it.

Most of ALDC or URM probably take easy majors.

The impressive real brains would be doing math, physics, CS, engineering, etc.

A. where do you go?
B. Yale
A. wow, what do you study
B. Art history, communication, etc.
A. Eh... ok

LOL you clearly have not met any Yale art history majors. I am a SVP at a hedge fund, and I am actively involved in recruiting. Our incoming class of analysts has an art history major from Yale and one from Harvard. We also extended an offer to a Yale history major but he declined and is going to Goldman instead.[/quote]

Yale history majors do just fine. Many employers just want to know if you can think and write. [/quote]
