[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It really does not matter. I am in a senior Fed gov position; been on the Hill etc. The smartest and most capable (and successful) person I’ve encountered had an unremarkable educational background (not bad, third tier undergrad, low ranked law school), but she is universally considered amazing and had a meteoric rise where I work. In general, I have seen little correlation between job success in my gov/policy work and educational prestige.[/quote] 100% agree with this. I've seen no correlation between school and job performance. I do think sometimes people from lower ranked schools tend to check their work a little more, probably because they don't rest on their laurels. I've also seen abysmal writing from graduates of top ranked schools.[/quote]
