I could try learning and growing all I can but what's the point if there are other people who are probably going to be hired over me? It's not "just school", it's my future too. My career. My life. If I fail at that.... well, then I'm pretty much useless, don't you think?

At that point, what then is there to do?
Success at school, success at work, and success in life are three very different things.

Many of your schoolmates will soon discover (as I did) that being top in school is worthless outside it.

For your long-term happiness, the work you do in therapy is more important than the work you do at school.
