[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP you have fallen for the falsehood that going to an "elite" school somehow means you got a different education and should be walking a different road than everyone else.

The reason certain schools have an elite reputation has nothing to do with the education one receives there, nor with the future accomplishments of the majority of the graduates. Most are sitting in the cubicle next to the state school grad taking orders from the small regional college grad.[/quote]

Ivy grad here. Judging from my roommates and peers in my major, that is not the case. Most work at FAANG, banks, law firms, or became doctor.  I literally don’t know any that work at some random company like described in the OP — all are at top shelf companies. [/quote]

You are assuming small regional college grads can't work at those places, but they definitely do.

Also many Ivy grads do work at non "top shelf" companies. I know several. I find all of them extremely annoying to work with. They are never the top performers.[/quote]

And those Ivy grads may be whiners like OP.[/quote]
