[quote=Anonymous]My 2 cents: I have not felt jealous per se, but did regret not working harder in high school early on. At some point I realized the impact of college name on success and happiness was a lot less than what one did after enrolling in college and beyond. I have seen too many coast on the brand name of their college, to the point where I think they would’ve been better off having gone elsewhere. I’ve also seen many others attend lower prestige schools then turn it on after finding their passion later in life and becoming wildly successful. I’ve told my kids to go to the schools where they feel they will learn the most and not to think as much about rank or name recognition. Where one believes they will learn the most is a matter of fit, imo. I’m not saying rankings and reputation don’t matter at all, just much less than fit. [/quote]
