[quote=Anonymous]If I’m at NSF, this fact matters to me because I care about the pipeline in the aggregate and want to make sure resources get directed to all the places that routinely send kids to PhD programs. If I’m a PhD-aspiring HS student applying to college (or the parent of such a student) it’s not meaningful. Which is why I began the sentence you’ve bolded with “In the context of this discussion” — which you’ve conveniently ignored. In choosing the (most likely) ONE college s/he will attend, such a student should look at research opportunities, faculty, and course offerings in his or her specific areas of interest and make decisions among schools on that basis — not on the basis of some broad categorical assessment.
