My HS class: #1 is a doctor, #2 was at the local college, transferred to the flagship and then fell off the face of the earth. One went to West Point. The two girls in the top ten went to the flagship; have no idea what one did after that; the other hangs out with imaginary friends online. The rest, all guys, went to Georgia Tech and are engineers. Only 30% of the class even went to college, and most of that cohort went to the directional in town.

There were a couple of folks who wound up with PhDs (psych), a geologist with a MS and MBA, a lawyer, an accountant and one guy who’s COO of a big senior living construction firm. I’m sure he makes more money than the rest of us.

My kids’ schools didn’t rank. Lots of folks in top grad/professional schools from their cohorts, but my kids aren’t among them at this point.
