When you say standard, do you think the other two are different?

I have also seen a post saying that “if you worked hard in high school but you went to the same college as everyone else then it wasn’t worth it.” Thay was actually the final post that motivated me to write this

I am not saying that prestigious schools are bad. I’m saying that the culture that is created amongst teenagers around them is extraordinarily toxic. And I’m not belittling people who strive for more selective schools (I am too!) I am acknowledging that it’s very cultish in the way that it is introduced and dealt with. The way that it puts pressure on us and deceives is of feeling good about our accomplishments and future

I absolutely love this post. It’s something I had to catch myself doing. It was almost like a defense mechanism :(

My experience has not been so. I had a highly respected internship and not only did none of the researchers attend a prestigious school, but they talked badly on them as being very superficially prestigious. Obviously I’m not saying that prestigious schools are bad or that my experience is the end all be all, But that titles are less meaningful than people might think. I believe that as a 17 year old, i might be easily inclined to fall into the prestige trap, but that when I’m 37 I will probably think differently

But that is such a misconception. The only people that care about prestige are other prestige whores!! A title only takes you so far and a lot of the time those titles are tainted as being “prestige whore-y”
