As a rather jaded 40-year-old, may I just say that a LOT of this information also applies to when you finally leave school and jump into the crazy world of full-time employment. It doesn't matter what field you apply to or work in - these same myths you have introduced are also perpetuated in the job application and interview process within the corporate world. Except - maybe change "essays" to "cover letters" (man, I how I hate writing cover letters...).
@XSemperIdem53 жыл бұрын
Very true. I'm especially reminded of the infamous "what's your weakness" question at interviews. That is not the moment for authenticity and honesty. That is the moment to sell yourself as the candidate they should choose so tread carefully with how you answer yet sound natural. So much in life is about playing a role. Once you're out in the full time work real world, you see how the best employee isn't necessarily the one getting raises or being treated better.

If everyone does very bad on a test, but you perform exceptionally, the curve often reflects that. So, if you go to a super prestigious school, you will be surrounded by lots of other big brained geniuses, making it hard to stand out both in terms of grades and relationships with professors. At a less competitive school, you will stand out more and have more time for internships, work experience, research opportunities, etc. because you don’t need to spend as much time studying.

Either you're what other people already like, in which case the advice is useless, or else you aren't, and then it's harmful to you. Be yourself as much as circumstances allow, sure, but realize people are generally pretty narrow-minded, and plan accordingly.
@XSemperIdem53 жыл бұрын
I'll comment as someone in their mid 30s (oh gawd I feel old just typing that). I finished my schooling seevral years ago, grad school included. Back when I applied to universities the college counselor was clearly biased and would treat UCs as the goal schools and CSUs as the backup schools. I turned down a UC and opted to attend a CSU because it had the program I truly wanted. And flash forward to me taking a psychopharmacology course in grad school for fun (yes, the actual psych majors looked at me like I was crazy when I said I wanted to take that course yet they were only taking it as a requirement). My professor was offered a position at UCLA and was invited to observe the UCLA version of our course. When she returned she knocked down the page requirement on our paper and said the UCLA version was so much easier. Ultimately she accepted the position at UCLA because it allowed her to assign a grad student to teach many of her courses, allowing her to focus her time on research instead. I got to learn directly from an expert in her field who routinely worked on research for the government and major pharmaceutical companies, while the UCLA students got a grad student teaching the course. That's something people don't routinely bring up about UCs. Apply to a school that has a program you truly want and don't get caught up in the whole prestige part. Remember that what you need is a program that will prepare you to work in your field of choice.
@MartaMation3 жыл бұрын
I had a similar experience! My CSU professors were all PROFESSORS and when I went to a private *prestigious* grad school I was rarely taught by the professor whose name was attached to the course. I also realized recently my class sizes at the CSU were typically much smaller and more personal than my friends classes who went to Berkeley, UCSD, etc. However, I would say the college>career guidance seemed to be more visible at Berkeley/other UCs than at my school. You had to know where to look.

Biggest regret in HS was focusing all my energy on studies and being antisocial. Wish I tried more things and broke out of my shell more. I was #1 in my class but just dropped out of college because I hated it (and the panorama) and I've never been more happy and free in my life. When your life revolves around something that is literally a social construct that doesn't really effect life over all (cough grades) it is the most freeing thing to step back and not be burdened by it. Of course now the only burden I have is being able to pay the bills haha. Also BIG judgement coming from everyone I went to HS. Every time someone asks me "how's college?" I'm like oh I dropped out, and it's like the biggest shock for them. But I'm happy and you have to decide what path is right for you.

It literally makes me itch all over thinking that in the States admissions are choosen reading about what a person participated in on high school, what race they are, literally everything about ones life. In my country you have to get the best grade you can in school overall and then do the exams (which are national and the same for everyone) that each degree and university require. Then, a computer program takes these grades, puts them in order (from higher to lower), and will autonomosly figure if you enter or not. No one knows at the time of admission what's your race, where you live, what you've done... The universities are simply sent the data of the people that were accepted after this process.

Mostly, people care about prestige because of the people you meet at elite schools and the network you can build.

In my opinion, college is over hyped. People forget that any degree can get you anywhere . If it becomes too stressful to go to school then something is wrong. I was one of those teens. I was so sad realizing that I couldn’t go to my “dream” school. Colleges pick whoever they want to whether you meet all the requirements or not. It’s a lottery especially for very well known schools. I went away and I realized going to a school that was close to home was way easier financially and a lot less stressful. Don’t go away if you know you can’t afford it either . Taking out loans doesn’t solve starving on campus! Side note: don’t stress about getting into a certain school. As the years go by, you won’t even care about the school and you just want to graduate ! After a certain point you just want to get into your career and move on . I can list more stuff but this comment would be too long lol

Most students in my high school thought that I would be going to a university but I went to a community college.

I turned down UCSB in favor of CSULA because it had the program that I truly wanted and had actual connections to my field. I never cared about the prestige of the university, only that it served its purpose for my degree goal. I remember how during the application process the college counselor at my high school basically said UC was always better and CSU schools were just backup schools. Such antiquated views.

Personally I want to do the CC route that directs to a likely state school. I'm not gonna want to deal with debt. I'd much rather get the best I can out of a great state college, like how you were talking about at the end, than end up in huge debt because I wanted to go to an expensive school. Everyone's different, but that's what I hope to do.

As an upcoming hs freshman who thinks they know everything, lolz, one thing I would say is dont pick a topic for your essay based on something you think your college would like. I have a connection to an admission officer, and she says she gets sent so many applications, and this is how yk it's common since they're all formulated the same way, about kids using an event in their life and trying to twist it to be fitted to the college's, I guess, stereotypical standard. Also wish me luck next school year :)
