The biggest waste of time, and it happens in all schools, is talk about other people , styles, and schools. Others, even in good schools, may fall for it: you shouldn't. Be humble, but work towards constantly progressing.
I believe, together with this post, there is a lot of great advice in this thread for Tigerguy.

I hope he works hard, keeps an inquisitive mind and has a great kung fu path.
