Ask HN: Where did you go to college? 16 years ago
I went to a low-caliber school because I lacked the intelligence to successfully attain the grades, test scores, and extracurricular achievements necessary to gain admission to a superior school. Now that I am either out of school or at a college whose competition is even weaker than that of my high school, I imagine that my failures were completely by choice, that I am smart but just lazy. Though I have zero facts to back up these delusions, I am at least free from the constant stream of academic measurement that says otherwise. Nevertheless, I still look down on those who either did not go to college or attended schools I view as inferior to even my lowly alma mater.
