If top schools really wanted to show they’re the best

One thing I have an issue with in education is sadly too many students are forgotten and not lifted up to their potential. But the biggest thing is you have these top Ivy League colleges with billions of dollars and endowments . They only take the top 1% of students and use their money , resources and reputations to get them so when they graduate with success they give back to them making them more important and wealthy. But those students were already the top 1% of their schools anyways. They already had straight A’s and would’ve gotten them no matter where they went. Like yeah they got a 4.0 at Harvard but they would’ve gotten a 4.0 at the community college down the street anyways. It’s not impressive . What would really show these are good colleges is if they took struggling students and made them into successes. That is would show they are good colleges with good professors and that they can make an impact educationally and change students lives. Like not even the bottom of the class but even just average students and make them better . But if they could make a 2.0 high school student who’s motivated for this opportunity into a 4.0 college graduate that would be impressive and that would be showing they’re a top school.
