Advice for M&T, M.E.T, and Stanford (CS)?

Yes, workload for MET is a lot. Kids are almost always working on HW. From what I heard, it is quite a lot more stressful than Stanford CS but no pain, no gain. Nothing negative about MET although you will find that some people will resent you because they are jealous. However, as MET, you have an easier time getting into better clubs around campus.
