a good college is more valuable for the implicit qualities, not what is literally taught in class - you will polish yourself off.

I did group project after group project, presentation after presentation. It taught me how to work well with others, deal with hardships and deadlines, and most importantly: how to communicate and act in business situations. It also teaches you how to think. No college graduate will 100% apply what they learned from the classroom into reality, that goes for doctors as well. Everything you learn is taught on the job, in medical school, etc. College though helps you develop your mental, social, communication, and a slew of other skills. Not to mention, if you pick the right school, it will be the best time of your life.
