lol...CalTech on that list. Those who don't know, really don't know.
Do you want to work for NASA? JPL? Los Alamos? SpaceX? Blue Origin? Google? Citadel? Susquehana? Bridgewater?
Never mind graduate school access to any top tier STEM department at any Princeton, Columbia, Harvard, MIT or Stanford.
You do realize that your ticket is punched when you are a beaver, more than any other college in America.
There won't be many jobs in those fields because of AI. It's already starting. Only the top of the top will gets jobs, maybe that's Caltech.
Maybe that's Caltech?
Its definitely Caltech! It is 100% top of the top.

For me, if it is the best school one of my kids get into, it is worth it (though it will be tough). If one of my kids gets into UVA (in-state) and wants to go to Boston College, that's a tougher pill to swallow for me than say if they are choosing between Boston College and Penn State. It is all relative.

Chicago Booth is the graduate school of business not Chicago undergrad. Totally different vibes. PP is spot on.
