[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of the arguments here reduce to opinions on how selective these schools are. I think tiers should be based on whether the education and opportunities provided by schools in those tiers provide better opportunities and satisfaction than schools in lower tiers. Same kid, same entering stats, same choice of major, does the school make a difference? I'd argue if you look at it from this perspective, many of the perceived differences are illusory. [/quote] I read a study that showed that kids accepted to Ivy schools (I think they had specific schools) but then chose to go elsewhere (for instance public honors) did the same as kids with similar stats that did attend the Ivy school. The factor was whether they could be admitted, not actual value add from the school. [/quote]
