[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are over 1,000 universities in the US. Why focus so much on the 10-20 "elite" universities. People can and do perfectly well at any of the other universities.[/quote] When the most successful and wealthiest people in this country come from the top 20 schools, it’s hard not to focus on the elite schools. [/quote] That may be true for the 1%, but what about being in the top 2% or top 5% instead? We live in a smaller city outside of the DC area, and just about everyone who has been to college has been to second or third-tier schools. Not a single Ivy leaguer among them, and that's fine. They still are the business elite here and do quite well.[/quote]
