[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Better to be a big fish in a small pond compared with being a small fish in a big pond. I believe that’s been borne out psychological research [/quote] As someone who's been the big fish (not by choice), there is a cost to it too. When you basically can cruise through school half asleep and writing with your left foot, you are not developing the skills you should be developing. You simply don't know what you don't know. And no one is paying attention because "you'll do fine, no matter what"[/quote] This happened to me. Freshman year of college was very rough. I bounced back, but a couple of first semester Cs in weed out classes led to me switching majors. [/quote]
