As someone who goes to a state school, sometimes I feel like being in college is detrimental to my learning. I'm surrounded by students who don't care, and it can be tough to overcome "the crowd." Looking back, I'm not sure if it was a good idea to save money and go to state school, as opposed to going to an expensive school with motivated students. I guess time will tell...
- zecho 14y agoExpensive schools don't necessarily have motivated students, especially not at the undergrad level. I've met just as many morons from the Ivy Leagues as I've met from state schools (and brilliant people, too). Cost has little to do with desire to learn or focus for an 18-year-old to twenty something.
