<p>Ugh… Yeah, none of that at Rice, in my experience. If you asked the best folks in the class for help on things, they’d typically be more than willing to help out. Once we got to know each other, we’d all just schedule a time and location when we’d be doing a particular problem set and whoever wanted in on it would show up. That typically included people from the top of the class as well as people from the bottom.</p>
