Summary
When I was in high school, I was under the naïve impression that going to a top college meant that everything in life would somehow magically work itself out for you.
Boy, was I wrong.
After spending countless hours cramming for the SAT and loading up on extra AP and IB classes, I was admitted to the University of Chicago and entered as a first-year student in fall 2010. While I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to have attended such a renowned university, looking back, there are many important lessons that I didn’t learn while there.
In this book, I have assembled a collection of essays that are related to education and learning in some way, although not always formal education and the essays are in no particular order. If you read every essay in this book, then I am confident you will learn at least one new bit of knowledge or wisdom that you can’t learn in a college classroom. I hope it will be an enjoyable and illuminating read for you.
