With exception of MIT I never saw much of a pattern of a school reflecting on a graduates quality.
I 'no hired' an intern we had from RPI - that is the only contact I've ever had with the school's output - can't tell much from one person.
I think the important thing for a school is that the kid identifies with the environment and connects with the profs. Its up to the student what they get out of it.
wrt MIT: absolutely everyone I ever worked with from there had been put through the wringer and was seriously prepared to buckle down and work hard. All the same story: they entered the school as the best and brightest and were beaten senseless for 4 years. I am pretty sure they all have ptsd but were all fabulous hires.
