<p>You may be surprised by how little the apparent snobbery is at top schools. Anyone who goes to one of them thinking they’re really special is likely to have quite a humbling experience in the first few weeks of the fall when they see how special everyone else is. I think you’ll find more snobbery at schools a notch or two below on the pecking order where it may be more feasible for an Ivy-quality student to maintain an attitude of superiority.</p>
