[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sure, but it also depends on career aspirations. 40% of VCs have a degree from Harvard or Stanford. If you want to make it big in finance or get funding for a tech startup, you have some advantages coming from an Ivy or school like Stanford, Duke, or MIT. If you want to be a software engineer or teacher, both fulfilling careers as well, the pedigree probably matters much less.[/quote] If you've been following the news, you would know that SWE jobs depend on mercurial types like Elon Musk. When you've had enough, having an ivy degree to move on makes it that much easier. [/quote]
