In addition to the SAT being optional and re-takeable, where one goes to school is less predictive of success in American society than e.g. Britain or Germany or Japan. (Not unpredictive. But a second-tier degree doesn’t bar one from high office or Fortune 500 executive suites.)

To a first, second and third approximation no one in Germany gives a crap what school you went to. Germany used to have élite universities like Heidelberg, and Tübingen. This was deliberately leveled into consistent mediocrity starting in the late 60s. One German university is basically as good as another.
