prestigious is way better, not close

as long as its prestigious in a real sense and not "the community college thats the talk of the local dennys" prestigious

that name matters so fucking much, more than the degree

It's one of the best in my country and it's ranked among the top 100 in the world in several different rankings (not top 10, but still). I know a professor who works at said university, and according the her the name is internationally recognized.

Does this sound prestigious or am I exaggerating?

what matters is having a strong vision, willpower to win

and ruthlessly executing against that, every single time

to me prestigious is top 20 or top 10, but I'm at a top 5 school so I have a skewed perspective

it would be easier if you just said the school names

Okay, I'm thinking of going to Uppsala university. It's 81 in the THE, 60 in the ARWU and 2012 it was 81 in the QS, before being bumped to 102.

Your college's prestige doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things.

It's better to get a degree and not be in debt for six digits than it is to say you graduated from a prestigious place.

I have zero debt, hehehe

Welfare country = free degrees

Depends on your nation

This guy isn't wrong, but, he's probably from the UK or America where they hold much higher value on prestige for their universities. In my country it's a did you go to a shit tier uni or did you go to a non-retard uni

yeah I'd go business and economics. the better career department alone will make up for the difference.
