[quote=Anonymous]Oh! This was me! Burn out. But the burn out was from the fast pace of high school. And that fast pace was entirely self imposed in high school. I was really driven. Then I got into a top Ivy and I just felt like ... why am I pushing myself? I just lost all interest in performing to anyone's standards. I wanted to just learn for learning's sake (or not learn). I still did the work, but I didn't kill myself for As. I was happy with Bs and some Cs. I had no law school or graduate school ambitions. My grades were good enough to get a job. But I'm not a high powered anything.[/quote]
