- jshowa3 8y agoYeah, you'd have to go to schools in California because Mountain View is in California and the big programs are at Stanford, Berkeley, etc. My alma mater is actually building its own mobility research center in Flint, MI. Home of the lead poisoned peasants. And my alma mater isn't that well respected.
- sosodev 8y agoOh, right. Just go to Stanford. Sure, no problem.
- Matticus_Rex 8y ago"Go to Stanford" is a muuuuch bigger barrier than "go to a university." And considering it costs hundreds of thousands of dollars to get a degree at Stanford, it's not clear that it's the far superior option.
- jshowa3 8y agoIt only costs hundreds of thousands if you get no scholarships, did no curricular activities, took no AP courses, and didn't do well in school in general. Most schools will provide students with academic scholarships. My school paid for the first year of my schooling because of my GPA and test scores. Plus I'm pretty sure getting into Kettering University is a lot easier than Stanford. They didn't even have an admissions essay when I applied.
