[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Quality of the peer group is vastly different vs. non T20 IMO.  [/quote]

This. 
The networking. The connections. The opportunities.

I went to a T-20 in the 90s and my siblings did not. There’s a huge divergence in earnings and peer group (my college friends and their outcomes compared to theirs)….[/quote]

Agree with this. I went to a top Ivy, sibling did not. We both did fine in our careers and lives, but we went on to very different paths. And the people we associate with now are very, very different.

Three decades ago is very different from now.  More poor kids can attend top schools. More international students, many of whom will never work in the U.S.n More high stats kids are attending publics due to doughnut hole.[/quote]

top schools are even more barbell these days…. While OOS flagships are more donut hole - solidly MC families….

Let’s see what happens in 10 years where those kids end up.

I suspect  the poor /1G T20 and rich Ivy kids will still be getting most of the $$$$$ gigs after graduation.

While the public flagship kids go to med school, law school or work in back office banking or tech. [/quote]

There are rich kids at all the private T50s and my guess is that they will, for the most part, have better opportunities than poor or middle class kids at higher ranked schools.  Connections and a safety net make a huge difference.[/quote]
