[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From Malcolm Gladwell - there are a lot of MIT Business majors that started as STEM majors. You judge yourself with those around you - at top tier school you are likely at the bottom. He gave an example of a Brown Bio major who dropped out but in retrospect she thought if she went to UMD she'd have a PHD in the field. if you prep him for the competition then he might better deal with it. [/quote] "Mismatch" was always the criticism of affirmative action and DEI. It would have been better for all involved if this person had gone to schools such as VCU, VaTech etc. and majored in Accounting/economics as opposed to attending HYPSM and majoring in ethnic studies, communications etc. [/quote]
