I feel depressed when I think of schools better than the one I go to

It is up to you now to earn your way into a better school. I assumed your attendance for undergrad at a school you find unworthy of yourself

</p>

<p>I don’t think the school I go to is unworthy of myself, just not the type of school I would have liked to go to.</p>

<p>

was due to lack of effort in high school.

</p>

<p>Had I given high school all my effort and had I had a different attitude perhaps I would have been accepted to a better school. Obviously not Harvard, but a school better than the one I go to.</p>

If you are at your current school because that is the best you can ever do, then forget anyone’s statement about going to a better school for grad work. You can’t hack it. If you were at a better school, you’d be overwhelmed. Sorry to be harsh, but that is what it boils down to.

</p>

<p>That’s hard to tell. If my school is ranked number 50 and I transfer to school number 49, are you saying that I wouldn’t be able to hack it? What if I transferred to school number 20 and I am able to hack it, but with a lot more effort and less rewards? You don’t have to apologize for being harsh, I just think that you need to be more careful with your arguments.</p>
