[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I consider below “elite”: Harvard Stanford MIT Yale Princeton Caltech Penn Chicago Duke Northwestern Dartmouth Brown Cornell Johns Hopkins [/quote] Serious question: with the changes in admission practices, why is it worth considering most of these schools “elite”? Getting in is no longer a signifier that the student was the absolute best, but more so that the student has rich/connected parents and/or that the students comes from a racial demographic that (applying socially fashionable racism) the admissions department has decided it prefers? I will grant you that MIT and CalTech are prestigious. The rest need some reevaluation at this point. I think that, in a generation, you will see that the most successful people did not go to these schools.[/quote]
