How to excel when you aren't being challenged?

<p>I did not want this post to come off as though I have some superiority complex - it’s really easy to get caught up in high school chatter - and a lot of the people I go to school with demean the school rather drastically, saying that they themselves are too good for it, even though the vast majority of them were rejected from Northeastern, Boston University, Brandeis, Tufts, and so on – I know college is what I make of it and my education is what I put into it; thank you for all of the advice - it just seems like some people are coming off on the defensive and I didn’t mean to incur such a response. </p>
