In your opinion, who should not earn a degree from the Big Three?

[jsd]

In some fields, pedigree still matters. Law is one of these fields, but if you use your Big 3 degree to go to a highly ranked law school no one will blink at your undergrad (though you won't have had the same networking links that traditional high-ranked undergrads had going in to law school. you'll certainly have the ability to network once you're in).

But other fields, say if you're looking at a Big 4 accounting firm or something, Big 3 wouldn't cut it. Of course, not accounting major is trying to get into a Big 4 firm....

It all goes back to what has been said a repeatedly on this forum -- Figure out the end goal and work backwards. Sometimes Big 3 just won't cut it. It serves most of our purposes just fine, but it's certainly not a blanket solution for everyone.
