More fair comparison

I can't go to HMC prefrosh because it's the first two days back from school, and that'd suck. I wish they planned it better...
Still, I feel compelled to, in light of more information, reconsider yet again.
Pros of Caltech:
  • The name--I'll get better jobs and grad school opportunities
  • The location--Pasadena has lots of character, very unique
  • The housing--Houses instead of dorms, lots and lots of character, strong unity
  • The research--research programs encouraged for literally all students
  • The size--small so I'll know almost everyone
  • The pranks--fun stuff
  • The building--even more fun stuff
Pros of HMC:
  • The location--Claremont is gorgeous and HMC is adjacent to other schools
  • The consortium--great classes in pure sciences and liberal arts at other schools
  • The profs--Mudd profs are education-driven
  • The housing--guaranteed, with some of culture in each
  • The music--CS prof Keller owns at trumpet
  • The research--research programs encouraged for upperclassmen
  • The name--HMC is recognized as a serious undergrad school
  • The bread--College would be $40K cheaper
Cons of Caltech:
  • The chicks--they really weren't exaggerating
  • The difficulty--I can't get below a 3.0!!!!
  • The music--the director is better than A but still...
  • The profs--except for FEYNMAN, they're mostly research-oriented and not really that helpful
Cons of HMC:
  • The name--nobody knows it outside of jobs and stuff
  • The peers--half of them have the merit scholarship, but nearly all Techers qualified
  • The pranks--not as many

That's all for now... Goddamn I hate being indecisive

indian, you'd be better off going to sdsu and studying accounting, which will directly get you a job afterwards since you won't be doing theory shiz at cit, also you'd bag a finer chick (white) that way too.
