[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have no doubt Ivy League degrees help people get MBB and similar jobs. We all know who those "prestigious firms" hire and why. The notion though that Ivy League schools actually confer abilities that other environments cannot, however, is pure conjecture. In my workplace being competitive is not a desirable trait.[/quote] You’re grasping to understand things you don’t quite comprehend. [b]What the top schools teach you culturally is how to co-exist with highly accomplished peers, not to be overtly competitive in professional settings.[/b] The competitive strivers are those who bubbled up from second and third-tier schools and go through life with a big chip on their shoulders constantly having to prove themselves. [/quote] The ivy leaguers I have worked with did not learn that lesson at all lol[/quote] They knew how to size you up while meanwhile you spent most of your time resenting them. [/quote]
