[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It really depends on the person, I guess. I was a whale in a small pond, and it did not feel good at all, and I also don’t think it helped professionally. Sorry, if I were to do it again, I’d aim for a better school.[/quote] I don't think you want a terribly unmotivated or poor peer group by any means (as your "whale in small pond implies") but being simply a bigger fish or top quarter of a school sounds good. Still many students like you that can feed off each other but you're not getting defeated by being in the bottom tier or being the only smart person in the entire school. [/quote]
