Getting into a good design school is always a challenge and then figuring out your best natural talent (unique design style) is even more tough.
Sometimes people get into a discipline, considering the future scope of job offers and salary packages but later, they find themselves in mess when they are not able to perform as expected.
ONE THING as aspiring designer you should know, DESIGN is always performance and portfolio based, and there are no rulebooks or certificates to prove you a great designer.
its all your live performance judged by the people around you that makes you great or average designer.
so getting into a good design school is not the epitome of success, like what generally happens in regular ENGINEERING or MBA programs. most people get into design with expectations of lucrative career ahead but thats not the case actually unless you make it big..
AS A DESIGNER, THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE is to CREATE A UNIQUE IDENTITY OF YOUR OWN and develop a STYLE OF YOUR OWN that brings you out of the crowd.
like Jonathan Ive ( Apple )

ITS A LONG JOURNEY AND IT TAKES YEAR TO BUILD THAT NAME FOR YOURSELF.
so dear friends, GET INTO DESIGN ONLY IF YOU LOVE DESIGN, AND ARE VERY PASSIONATE ABOUT IT.
it takes a lot of self discipline and determination to stick to a style and keep yourself motivated when you get criticized for your ideas and moreover keep yourself aware of the world around you and not ignorantly reinventing the wheel.
most people get in and out of design school > look for the highest paying job available ( even if they don't enjoy the work there )
and then end yup loosing there focus to develop as designer and invent a unique style of their own.
DESIGN CAN BE VERY BORING FOR THOSE WHO VALUE MONEY OVER FOLLOWING THEIR PASSION.
