這個大學排名其實也有點道理(adjusted for undergraduate enrollment)

也符合版上有些家長的推薦， 如讀醫去Duke， 創業去Stanford，Big Tech去CMU, Stanford等， 讀商去Penn, 幾個Top LAC都排很前，Santa Clara也榜上有名。

Found a great website that collects feeder school data called Collegetransitions. Basically they just went through LinkedIn and dug up the undergraduate backgrounds of employees at major firms. Kudos to them! I only selected the top 25 schools, adjusted for undergraduate enrollment for each category: T14 law school (and included data from YLS), T25 medical school, T15 tech companies, Top engineering firms (includes companies like Tesla, Lockheed Martin, etc.), PhD programs, startup founders (from PitchBook universities), and news and media companies (NYT, WaPo, etc). Discussions are welcome. I have included links so you can go check on their raw numbers.

Again, I'm doing this in my free time for parents who care. If you don't care about those stats, or if you think this data somehow misrepresented your DS' school and challenged your perception of "prestige," don't even bother posting a comment. This is how things are looking in 2021.
