Undergraduation

Came across Undergraduation when reviewing pieces by the author of Why Nerds are Unpopular. There is some good stuff here for undergrads, below I've given a section helpful for grad students.So the best thing you can do in college, whether you want to get into grad school or just be good at hacking, is figure out what you truly like. It's hard to trick professors into letting you into grad school, and impossible to trick problems into letting you solve them. College is where faking stops working. From this point, unless you want to go work for a big company, which is like reverting to high school, the only way forward is through doing what you love.
