[quote=Anonymous]From the research paper cited by the Atlantic: [quote]Attending an Ivy-Plus college has an especially large effect on students’ chances of reaching the upper quantiles of the income distribution. The impact of Ivy-Plus admission on reaching the top quartile of the distribution is small and statistically insignificant, while the impact on chances of reaching the top 1% far exceed what one would predict based on a constant percentage treatment effect across the income distribution."[/quote] In other words, going to an Ivy League doesn't help you succeed in most jobs. Just the ones that pay obscene (and IMO immoral) amounts of money.[/quote]
