<li><p>whenever ANYONE at your school talks about college, youre embarassed for them, because they have NO idea what theyre talking about.</p></li>
<li><p>You understand that its not just HYPSC etc and then all the rest. That getting into Rice, even though no one at your school has heard of it, is amazing. and whe nyou get accepted into a BA/MD program at Rice it is more impressive then getting into Cornell. But no one believes you. (Not my case, but it would be)</p></li>
