Please, this is an honest question and not a troll post. For those of you who think I'm trolling, then please don't respond.
I've recently been stalking my facebook friends' medical school statuses and seeing who is going where. I have been accepted to a decent medical school but all I can think about is if only I took college more seriously, I may have been able to land in a top10 school, like many of my facebook acquaintances have been able to. I am somewhat filled with jealousy and envy towards a lot of them and all I can think about is for medical school to start already so I have a fresh start in competing again and the opportunity to beat them in residency placement.
Is this an unhealthy mindset? I grew with korean parents always comparing me to other parents' children and have always felt these kind of feelings but I am worried that this will not bode me well in medical school.
