[quote=Anonymous]To concisely answer your question OP, no you do not need to go to a top school to become a physicist. It will be difficult to become a physicist from a top institution if you didn't attend one, but there are many programs out there with great placement records in industry. If your daughter is interested in becoming a faculty member, I'd say A) wait until you start working through physics curriculum and B) understand that getting a tenure track position in academia these days is more about "right place, right time" luck than it is skills.
