Going to a no-name high school. Am I doomed?

<p>All high schools are no-name. The general population has never heard of Exeter or any other fancy high school. </p>

<p>It’s actually better to go to a low-achieving high school because you don’t have to do nearly as much to be impressive. Colleges know most people don’t have control over where they go and they’re not going to intentionally penalize you for your school. Admissions officers don’t generally come from wealthy backgrounds, and looking overprivileged is NOT a good thing.</p>

<p>People from low-achieving high schools are less likely to go to top schools because they’re less likely to apply to them in the first place.</p>

<p>Me, hopefully.</p>
