How to handle competitive dynamics in collaborative cohorts

We're in the same MBA cohort and there's this unspoken competition where everyone pretends to be helpful while positioning themselves for the same opportunities and I'm exhausted by how much energy I spend managing what I share with people I actually like. The whole thing feels toxic but we're stuck together for another year.
