What I want to ask is, the best doctors, lawyers, engineers, accountants, business people, etc that we see being so successful, do they only come from ivy leagues and ‘big’ schools? I highly doubt it…
…
I have friends who are more successful in their careers than people I know who graduated from Ivy Leagues. We have so many examples on GS itself, people who didn’t go to the omg-the-top schools in the world but have mA, flourishing careers. Forget careers, I have seen some really smart and intelligent people on GS who I am sure didn’t acquire their skills from some school name. What we forget is that not everyone can afford to attend a big shot school, financial and family factors play a big part in these decisions. In the end, it’s important to have the drive to be good and successful at what you do but you can’t put a brand name on intelligence, and those who don’t go to ivy leagues don’t deserve to be put down.
