<p>Considering Caltech is only slightly larger than my high school, there was no way I could see myself going there. It was a good size for a high school to be because you knew everyone, but a bad size for a college to be because, well, you knew everyone.</p>
<p>If that’s your thing, though, go for it. Also, Caltech is in Pasadena, which is (and I’m sure Piper can correct me if I’m off on this) something like 45 minutes from LA. Not too appealing. But MIT is a bridge away from Boston.</p>
<p>Clearly, we win again.</p>
