Caltech will be harder, but it wont be so hard that I wont get a degree, Sakky. If its that hard, I will transfer. Yes, I may fail a class once or twice but that wont keep me from getting my degree.

<p>The issue is that if you fail enough classes, not only might you find it difficult to graduate from Caltech, you may also find it difficult to transfer to any other reputable school, as no reputable school wants to admit a transfer student who is in poor academic standing at his previous school. </p>

Honestly, have you ever heard of a Caltech engineering grad that tried reasonably hard there and ended up unemployed?

<p>That's not the question that interests me. What interests me is, again, what if you flunk out of Caltech? Not everybody who goes to Caltech will graduate. It's a very difficult school, and some people flunk out.</p>
