Does the 'Average Starting Salary' Mean Anything?---Engineering

And yet I know several MIT, CMU and Ivy grads making $100k+ plus bonus at age 22. The salary in any one company may well be the same, but clearly lots of those MIT grads are ending up in other companies.

Career surveys:

CMU: http://www.cmu.edu/career/salaries_and_destinations/index.html
MIT: https://gecd.mit.edu/resources/survey-data

MIT does have a significant percentage of bachelor’s graduates going into consulting (15.8%) and finance (5.9%).
