А вот интересно, какую инфу дает второй вопрос? Вот например, Harvard - Ivy League, Stanford - Private school, a Berkeley - Public school. Имхо разница между ними минимальна (особенно если взять не Гарвард, а, к примеру, Корнелл).

i went to a private prep school, now attending a public school, how about that? I am sure my school is nowhere near Ivy League, however, I believe that education is helpful, BUT in no way it will substitute for skills, social networking, and personal qualitites.

What I meant was Ivy League schools + equivalents (both private & public) in terms of prestige and opportunities.
As for what kind of info such a question gives, it points out the quality level of education "our people" can afford (unless they are so smart that managed to fully cover their tuition with various scholarships, fellowships, and grants).
