i’m going to be a junior in HS this fall. yes, i have asked quite a few questions about college myself, but seriously, college isn’t a make or break situation! every single day, i log on, and i see questions like “WILL I GET INTO HARVARD???? PLEASE HELP!!!” and answers like “no, you’re not diverse enough, blah blah blah”. why are we KIDS stressing out so much? college is NOT the end or beginning of our lives, it’s just going to be a PART of it. besides, sure, big name colleges will give you a leg up for a while, but when it comes down to it, what matters is what’s inside of YOU, not what harvard, yale, or princeton can put into your head! i have examples of very successful people all around me (including my cousin, an investor) who’s paychecks are PRETTY FAT, yet they didn’t graduate from one of the top 10 schools on U.S. News (heck, my cousin graduated from a community college!) my point is, take it easy guys. this isn’t really a question, it’s just what’s been on my mind for a while.
