Does this ever happen to any of you, it seems to affect me often. I am restarting school again and am about two years into it this time. Being 28 and seeing all the things people have achieved even before my age, makes it seem like school is a waste of time.
Eventually I would like my get a PhD in Physics. In high school I was just an average student doing nothing exceptional like most people. Then I see I am competing with people that were in AP math and physics classes their whole high school career while I just maintained passing grades. Now that I am in college I get mostly A’s and B’s in the classes I am taking. Then there are the high school students just entering college that are already taking higher classes than I am having met all their prerequisites beforehand while in high school.
Anyway, this is just my Sunday night rant that I have been meaning to ask someone for a while now. Do any of you feel like you are either to old or too under qualified to be going to some type of graduate degree? :grumpy:
