[quote=Anonymous]Definitely better to go to a general state school for undergrad and then go to a grad school that is prestigious for that field. I went to No-Name St. Univ. Got into Top Ten Law School == got a chuckle out of the fact that I paid a fraction of what my classmates paid to end up at the same place -- they went to Harvard, Princeton, Brown, Notre Dame, Georgetown, UVa., Duke, etc. My sister also went to the same No-Name St. Univ. Went to grad school (in the science) at Cornell. Got PhD from Cornell b/c it is well known in her field. You have to have good test scores to get into a good grad school, but THAT's the school that people care about on a resume. IME, grad school today is what a college degree was 20 years ago. I fully expect my kids will need to get a grad degree. So, the undergrad school isn't that important to me. They simply have to do well in order to get to the next level.[/quote]
