[quote=Anonymous]Of course attending a prestige college matters in one's life outcome. UK prime ministers mostly came from Oxford or Cambridge. Many Ivy graduates/dropouts went on to become business leaders, government leaders, supreme court justices, and etc. Has there ever been a SC justice or President from Longwood? Not I am aware of. Your anecdotes don't change the overall statistics. You also can't detach the name brand from the people who attend the top schools. Statistically those are people more driven, hard working, and intelligent. Obviously the choice of attending an average school is fine too. If you are a hardworking and intelligent person, you will be successful regardless. But there is no point of forcing your lifestyle to everyone else. [/quote]
