Also research shows that "colleges you've been accepted to but didn't go to" correlates the same to future income as "colleges you went to". I'd say 80% of the signal value of college is the initial sorting vs the education.
- ryandrake 5y agoAren't there even earlier sorting events that have predictive value of what colleges you might be accepted to? I thought I read somewhere that "father's income" is the single best predictive signal of the entire chain of events that leads to one's prosperity and career success. If true, even college admission doesn't signal much in and of itself.
