<p>The environment really isn’t as different between “prestigious universities” and “ordinary” universities like you seem to think.</p>

<p>double-u-tee-eff is an ‘ordinary’ university?</p>

<p>50% of people have to be in the lower 50%. Even if they’re arrogant starting out it’ll probably vanish after a term or so when exams start kicking their butts.</p>

<p>To start, im not in college, but i imagine that the college environment is much more hard and heavy. Although people at school try to pretend to be as college people. And still in a prestigious university is much more tough, because each of them try to fight, to become a leaer, and grain power. Then more into it, i think that stress, is not a way of disrespect. Stress abound in all schools, they seemed to be focused on themselves and then thats why you feel ignored.</p>

<p>I agree with soccar guy. The answer two the first two questions will also vary a lot by school; some top schools are known for being very competitive/have competitive and potentially arrogant students, others foster a more firendly enviorment, though of course you will find both kinds of student anywhere…including at “regular” Universities.</p>
