[quote=Anonymous]I went to an Ivy decades ago, and this is the same experience I had then. I thought it would be great, and I found a lot of above-average students, but very few superstars. It has not helped me almost at all in my career. I should have gone to a lesser school and been a top student. I was intimidated at my Ivy, and I didn't work as hard as I could have. I thought I was going to be a B student at my Ivy, and it turned out that with a little effort, I would have been an A student. I didn't take advantage of a lot of opportunities at my Ivy either. There was a lot of pushing and hyping at the school too, which I found off-putting. It really wasn't all it was cracked up to be, and I'm sorry I went there. I would have been happier at a lower-ranked but still very good college. [/quote]
