Rock Lee inspired me to take a PhD
>Not the smartest, IQ mogged by many around me
>Didn't win prestigious STEM competitions as an undergrad, like many around me
>Didn't go to an elite university, like many around me
>Don't have any publications, unlike many around me
>But have an unwavering belief in my passion and persistence

Yes because I worked with a professor. I was extremely passionate and determined even though I contributed nothing of research substance and he accepted me.

I can't believe lock lee did nothing in the second half. The least they could do is kill him if killing guy was too much.
