[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]agree op They should do a study and see where National Merit Finalists are at in their career and life 10, 25, 25+ years I doubt they are at the top 1% of the society because they tested at the top 1%[/quote] Eh, I went to a T14 law school and had a very substantial career as a litigator at a national level. I did a number of cases that were widely reported in the national news. I hated it. I made some rich jerks a whole lot of money. I made a good amount of money for myself. I quit being a lawyer and went to nursing school at a community college. Now I'm an ER nurse at a community hospital in an "urban poor" neighborhood. I love my job. I'm not "top 1% of society" but what I do helps people and makes me happy. [/quote]
