[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get that if you want to be on a CEO track or make big bucks on Wall Street, Ivy names could open more doors. But if you’re pursuing medical research, tech, natural sciences, are Ivies (undergrad) really that much better than schools a tier below? With AI changing everything, is old-guard Ivy prestige still as important as it has been before? [/quote] No. It's not. I don't know why Wall Street is so Ivy-fixated, but for everything else students will do just fine at, let me think - Stanford, MIT, Rice, Duke, Vanderbilt, Notre Dame, Georgia Tech, Michigan, Chicago, Purdue, Carnegie Mellon, WashU, Emory, Johns Hopkins, Northwestern, CalTech, Berkeley, UCLA, Georgetown, Williams, Swarthmore, and West Point, Annapolis, and Air Force Academy. By and large, there is zero difference in both the quality of these students and their grad school and career opportunities compared to the Ivy League schools. [/quote]
