The advantage is the network / badge that comes with it. That and you tend to have great funding / access to more opportunities. So, I'd argue there's a great advantage. But it's more accessible to those who already have advantages, since they look for these "early life" markers which many normal folk have little to no control over.

> The advantage is the network / badge that comes with it. Vastly overrated except for a very small number of people who didn’t already have a network and do the right kind of hustle to develop it. It happens, but it’s rare. Most of the folks at these schools already have a decent or good network. The badge rarely makes a difference for most people.
