One thing that top schools also offer is experience, in the form of top internships. As a current student at one of these so-called elite universities, I have had a difficult time applying to internships. I can only imagine how difficult it is for someone with a weaker college on their resume to get these positions. For college freshmen, other than GPA the biggest factor in whether or not they get picked for an internship is their school. I've talked to recruiters; a 4.0 at a non-top 3 state school vs. an ivy league 3.5 will see that job go to the ivy leaguer almost every time (from what I've seen, and from what my friends have seen).
Second year rolls around, and the internship competition that year depends mainly on, you guessed it, where you were your first year (probably 75% is based on that) followed by school/gpa.
The point I am making here is that the elite school alone really only helps in the college internship arena, but that name (if you use it well) can set off a chain of events that CAN make you better prepared than peers who went to worse-ranked universities. Then again, I'm only talking about top jobs in high paying fields here, but then again, that is what students at elite colleges are after.
If this is supposed to be an article about 3g vs 4g vs wifi, as the title led me to believe, why does tfs begin
"Some of the most popular Android smartphones currently available are members of Samsung's Galaxy S line. Powered by Samsung's own 1GHz ARM Cortex A8-based Hummingbird processor with a four-inch Super-AMOLED capacitive touchscreen, it's no wonder Samsung has sold over 5 million Galaxy S phones."
Less blatant next time, please...
Air pollution is really making us pay through the nose.
