University?

[KevinM1]

Shouldn't your existing school be able to provide you with relevant material?  In the states, we have guidance counselors who have a shit load of information - university rankings, often based on majors, scholarship info, etc.  Moreover, seniors go to college fairs where universities and colleges set up booths with info about their programs and campuses, and everyone just sort of knows about the prestigious schools through our culture (like, MIT is pretty good at that technology stuff, apparently (yes, sarcasm)).

It should be able to. I don't see how merely wishing it were so will change anything in this regard, though.

Well, I didn't know that your school (apparently) doesn't have much in the way of resources from your first post. I've encountered a lot of people on various forums who have asked similar questions about finding the right university for them, and many are simply unaware of what they have available to them where they are, or simply forget to use them.

Besides, I don't live in the United States of America, mind you.

I know. I brought up what I experienced in order to have you think about whether there's similar resources/opportunities in your country you could utilize in your search. There was an implied "Can you do this kind of thing where you are?"

Nevertheless, I'll pursue every source of guidance available on this. This is why I thought it best to also start a thread here, asking fellow free thinkers about it. What's so bad about that?

...nothing? It's hard to suggest an avenue of inquiry for you to pursue when no one knows if you have already exhausted some on your end before coming here. We're asking questions in order to better figure out what we think may yield the best results for you, not challenging you or doubting your intentions.
