[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It isn't just California, people. I'd venture to say that maybe 4/5 of the country doesn't even realize there is this freakish obsession with ivy league education on the east coast (or, to be more accurate, the New York-Philadelphia-Washington corridor). I was a top notch student in another part of the country and it never even crossed my mind that I should be applying to the ivies. I didn't even know what they were, beyond some vague understanding that Harvard was a place for geniuses. The same educational obsession seems to continue into securing the right career path, working for the right investment banking or law firm, and so on. Life everywhere else is so much different. It seems to me that a lot of people who were born and raised and remain in this bubble have no idea. It can be so much simpler.[/quote] have relatives in the PAC NW and 'top school' is supposedly big there as well (or has been for the last 4-5 years). [/quote]
