overrate: to rate, value, or estimate too highly(Merriam-Webster)</p>
<p>Going to school out-of-state can be a good thing…that does not mean it is not valued too highly by many high schoolers with ‘grass is greener syndrome’ or desire for greater independence. I go to school way out of state; many of my friends here are from the area. Most of the things people tend to worry about (seeing parents all the time, being with the same social group from HS, etc.) do not happen to people who stay in-state. YMMV.</p>
