<p>Intelligence and willingness to achieve tend to blur at the “elite” universities. Regardless, there are definitely people who kiss massive ass with average intelligence (imo) and make their way into prestigious colleges. People who are extraordinarily intelligent (or believe themselves to be) tend to be lazier than those people who aren’t as clever as them, thinking that knowledge comes to them more naturally. Rarely do demigod intelligence and deadly effort come in a single package.</p>
<p>And perhaps your impressions came about cause you were with the wrong people? Regardless of where you go, there are definitely going to be people spouting words like “brah” (unless you go to Tibet or something). Truth be told, were not all as intelligent as we’d like to believe. And especially in our business-laden world today, colleges definitely look for the “leadership” trait. Not all schools are good at making presidents like Yale, but they all strive for it.</p>
