Not getting into an ivy league = screwed for life?

<p>Well, for a start there are schools outside of the Ivy League that are just as good: MIT, Stanford, Caltech, UChicago, Duke, etc. And secondly, it’s not so much about what school you attend as much as it is about what you do at that school–a Harvard grad might graduate jobless, while a state school grad ends up with a great job. I personally know a guy who chose to start a business instead of going to college; he now makes six figures. Don’t worry about it.</p>
