Indeed. I can remember there was a guy, that was one year ahead of me in High School, that was accepted to, and attended MIT. I believe that he would have been in his Sophomore year when he killed himself.
In High School, you see, he was always a straight A, honor roll student...that never once had to open the textbooks. When he got to MIT, he actually had to study and had absolutely no idea how to study. The stress of it all became to much for him, and...well..
