Burgers or Best

Location

“You have to go to college” they say, I have no other choice.

But how do I get there? I know I have to be ‘above average’.

Average, what does that even mean anymore?

Is a C average? C’s… Many colleges will close their door.

Everyone must go to college, be above average,

 pass the classes, take the tests.

Options are slim; it’s either flipping burgers or being the best.

Being average and working hard isn’t even doable anymore,

Everyone is fighting for ‘above average’ in this educational war.
