Excellent Sheep: The Miseducation of the American Elite and the Way to a Meaningful Life by William Deresiewicz
5.0
*reread 2022, review is from 2020*
Must read for all the university students around the world. Mostly for those in "elite" universities and with ambitious goals. This book gives you statistics and experiences from different people in the education system; it will give you the courage to find your own path and take bold decisions.
It helped me question the education I am getting and inspired me to take a different approach for the following three years that will lead to higher "success" than every part before.
It is very US-centric, but also relevant for non-US students. Also great to read while still in high school!
