<p>That doesn’t explain Berkeley’s survey. Berkeley specifically asks whether you are going to the workforce or going to grad school. The Berkeley survey also asks whether you are still actively job-hunting and if you are, then you are not to list any part-time job you may have while you’re conducting that job hunt.</p>

<p>To say they “end up” Starbucks baristas as if they have no other options is kind of absurd. I know people who graduate from top schools and decide by their own free will to do mediocre work…typically they’re doing some personal project or social activity on the side. They valued their education and certainly wouldn’t have preferred going to trade school or whatever.</p>

<p>Does anyone have a site containing detailed employment and salary statistics about Claremont McKenna College?</p>

<p>I thought I would revive this thread by putting a totally random school on the list:</p>

<p>Butler:

<p>Wow…doesn’t seem like a bad place for pre-med.</p>

<p>That doesn’t take away from the fact that they still ended up working as Starbucks baristas, or more importantly, it still illustrates the general point that some people from top schools will work mediocre jobs. Any way you want to cut it, the truth is the truth.</p>

<p>Someone (a long time ago) wanted some Villanova stats. Here they are:</p>
