[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah. This is why so many high stat kids are a flagships. [/quote] Because their parents don't know any better? Yes, that is why. Look, let me explain IB and biglaw to you, in terms of recruiting. They come to your big school, they interview, they make their picks. Those kids aren't set for life. They're just in another competitive pool. They get winnowed away by 80 per cent or more in the first few years. They take lesser jobs. They move back in with their folks. They go to graduate school. It's far from a sure thing, and that's true across the board for professional recruitment. Come at it sideways with the kind of connections you can make at a SLAC or a smaller school, you'll do a lot better. [/quote]
