<p>I agree with the networking aspect of top tier schools. Going to a top schools means you get more chances to meet kids with money who have enough financial support from their moms and dads to start entrepreneur businesses that make more money (like facebook and google and microsoft). Pretty simple economics.</p>
<p>We’ll I’m not that sure about UCB fitting into that category. It is a public school and kids have less money therefore don’t create facebooks/googles/microsofts as easy and often as the Harvard/Stanford guys.</p>
