Are you elite? /pol/ (definition of elite is attending or got degree from top 3% universities in your country)

I can speak engrishu desu senpai! so I am elite^^

Studied at University of Sydney in Australia.

Not 'elite' but it was a quality university with good teachers and rigorous testing.

Also I bet the kids studying at those 'elite' universities have egos the size of the moon.

What if you live and study in a country without any real elite universities? Here in Germany most private universities are way to small to provide a acceptable advantage in relation to the costs. Well there are some cities with good connections to some specific industry. For example erlangen/nürnberg, where I study has got Siemens here or if you want to study nuclear science than probably Heidelberg is ja good choice. Way to many people study after school in Germany, but most of them get fucked in the Ass within the first few exams or end up with a useless degree.

I wonder how this shit is ranked. I mean, back when I was an engineering student, there was a severe lack of Norwegian teachers, because the vast majority of people with an engineering degree were actually working as engineers. We even had a couple of physics teachers working at CERN, but they only taught the occasional semester when they were home in Norway. We even had some Iranian teachers who could barely speak Norwegian.

When I decided to look up some courses from prestigious US universities that were recorded and put on Youtube, they lesson plans were exactly the same, and they even used the same books. I wouldn't have learned more by going there, than going to my underfunded, shitty engineering college.
It seems like it's simply used as a ranking system of its students. To get into an Ivy League college, you need to have the best grades (or at least, it used to be like this), so those colleges get the best students, and thus the best results.

The 1% makes at least 650k.

The elite of the elite make at least 10 times that.

And guess where the majority of them come from?

Princeton, Harvard, Yale and Stanford.

>>56584186
is manchester elite? can't be bothered to look it up, i don't think it is, i'm surrounded by mouthbreathers. no university populated by this many rabid leftists can be elite. for some of the engineering courses and physics it's classed as "elite" globally though, or at least it was when I started here a few years ago. We've probably given too many places to dumb pakis and niggers to be classed as elite now.

i've met a few harvard and oxford grads and i wouldn't trust them to tie my shoes without written instructions to be honest family. it's possible to be "elite" and still be a fucking idiot.

Let me guess - the evaluation was developed and carried out by U.S. researchers?

>inb4 Germany so mad

i couldnt care less if germany appears in that list or not. i just think that a similar comparison carried out by japanese, chinese or british scientists would look significantly different. its all about the prioritization of criteria.

all forgiven and forgotten if you can tell me the study was not made in the united burgers.

*wouldn't trust a pretty large number of them to tie my shoes, obviously most of them are fairly smart. i'm comfortable in saying i'm more intelligent than most of them, though, and i'm still fully aware of my limitations. here in the UK getting into oxbridge usually comes down to where you went to school, how influential your parents are and how well you were prepared for the interviews (this isn't something you can do on your own, the vast majority of those who get onto popular courses have been prepared in advance). sure, a few kids get lucky and somehow apply for a course and college that will accept them and have a nice interview on the day, but they're a minority.

Am I supposed to be impressed? There's nothing prestigious about getting an MBA/law degree or having contacts and getting a job handed to you. You're still completely skill-less and easily replaced

Being skilled doesnt make you elite.

Having contacts and money makes you elite. And MIT graduates wont have either in their lives.

They will spend their lives working for those corporations owned by Princeton, Harvard, Yale and Stanford graduates.
