you are right. since you are already not in the Service, no point trying unless you have stellar academic achievements. Even if you do have great credentials, you might not still get in. I know of many statutory board and PSC scholars, who did not get in despite being scholars.
There are many great high paying jobs besides being an investment banker. The point of doing a good program with an ivy league is that:
1) it gives you more options
2) you are exposed to other jobs and opportunities which you will never have considered in the first place.
3) it gets you into the door of most job interviews.
