Is a prestigious undergraduate degree worth it?

Maybe, I am one that thinks its more impressive to have an undergrad degree from Harvard then a masters (MA) from Harvard.

That’s not an uncommon sentiment. I was having drinks with a group of MIT PhD students last year and one of them said of another “X is the really smart one [in the group] because she also went to MIT as an undergrad”
