The people who went to MIT didn't need to spend 10+ years "establishing a track record" before getting a desirable job, people took them seriously right out of college.

It takes 10+ years worth of work amd good habits to get into MIT.

I agree that people from Target Schools have an easier time getting their foot in the door, but I also believe the benefit stops shortly thereafter.
