If you think that the school you went to makes shit for difference in the real world, you're a retard.
Your program of study, your competence, your resume and experience will make far, far, more difference than what damn school you went to.
so when starting off, first job after college, i wouldnt have more open doors if my BBA was from Wharton?
I do agree that when getting a job after you have been in the workforce for a while, experience out weighs your degree though. But im simply speaking of starting off, first job evar.
Actually, for his first job out of college, they didn't care where he went to college. They didn't even generally look at recent college grads, fortunately for Rex, he had an excellent Resume. They told him that they really went out on a limb for him and they have never regretted it. So basically it doesn't matter what school you get your degree from, people want to see that you are going to work hard, and you show them that by doing lots of internships, not just the one that's required. You get a lowly job for the summer working for a company that is in your field and you work hard so you have references that aren't just your professors. Believe me, I know this as I did not follow this path and now I am a secretary for a Heating and A/C company.
