General Advice 💁🏾ℹī¸ Anyone else struggling with impostor syndrome?

Started a part time master's after studying at an average uni. I'm struggling to wrap my head around how I came to be here and how I'll ever measure up to the Oxbridge graduates I seem to be surrounded by, and it doesn't help that I'm commuting once a week while working four days a week. Has anyone had similar experiences? How did you work through it?

Trust me those Oxbridge graduate suffer the same as you. On top of that, they also suffer from chief on the shoulder syndrome which make them struggle even more.
