[quote=Anonymous]Talking with professors from midwestern flagships (think Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin) and they say the overall achievement level of entering students at their flagships have gone way up in the last 10 years. First rate in-state students turning down seats at the most highly sought-after east coast schools. Choosing to save their money for grad school or other things. Difficult for kids who could once count on being accepted to get in. Leave the snobbery of the mid-Atlantic/northeast corridor, and you can find a smart, high-achieving peer group. (Not claiming you can be scooped up by Wall Street firms. That's still the realm of the usual suspects.) Interesting to have the perspective of east coast educated profs... Anecdotal, take it for what it's work.[/quote]
