Achieving good grades has often been seen as a means to get into a prestigious university, with which ur future will be secure. With that degree from a prestigious university, doors will open for u... But is all that true? 

Of the CEOs of the top 20 companies in last year's Fortune 500, exactly one - Amazon's Mr Jeff Bezos - went to an Ivy League school (Princeton University).

Didn't anybody tell these rich parents that with their wealth, all they had to do was make a sizeable donation to get their child into a "good school", no matter how poor their grades? (Exhibit A: Mr Jared Kushner, who got into Harvard after his father pledged to make a US$2.5 million donation.)

Maybe a Harvard diploma will give a graduate an easier shot at landing his first job out of school. But that's really the only advantage, and it doesn't last long. Once you've landed the job, you have to perform. If you don't, your Harvard degree isn't going to be worth the parchment it's printed on. And if you do perform, nobody is going to much care that you went to the University of Central Oklahoma.

What you get out of your education is what you put into it. That is especially true when you enter a university because you are usually on your own for the first time. You can make your own decisions about whether to attend that early-morning class or sleep through it. ....The qualities you exhibit in college - ambition or laziness; attention to detail or sloppiness; being success-oriented or content with mediocrity - will likely be the qualities you bring to your life after college. They will matter a lot more than where you went to school when you were 18.

Qn: Achieving good grades is the only thing that matters. Do you agree?
