You should know this if you plan on coming here.

the University of Tokyo[HOME]

http://www.kyoto-u.ac.jp/
i know these sites well, but i didn't know they were called as you mentioned above. I'm guessing thats how you say it in japanese?

MMM, i think what you mentioned is the same all over the world these days. For example, my brother went to Imperial college (3rd overall in uk, and 1st for some subjects), now he's a financial banker, but he told me when they recruit people in these BIG companies, they only look at the UNI, and the qualification level, not even the subject. He told me what you learn in school/uni etc is almost ALWAYS useless you do research or if its a subject destined for one job only./ The only reason people employ uni gradutes is cos it shows companies that they are able to get through tough exams. have deadlines, they can organise themselves etc etc
