I likely do not understand what you mean here, because a casual reading of this seems ridiculous. Most white people do not go to top schools either.
On the flip side, if one were to list factors that play a role in becoming decently successful, going to a top school is fairly low on that list (as in most successful people didn't go to one either).
I'm probably not interpreting the comment as you intended, though.
