<p>I'm not happy with my social life at school. Probably because the environment isn't really great. Very few people share my interest in science and math...the intellectual/chill character.</p>
<p>No one calls me to hang out, I end up starting conversations with anyone I meet, and its usually brief or boring.</p>
<p>I had a great time at COSMOS though. I'm not sure if I'm the problem...anyways, two questions popped up:</p>
<p>1) Does the environment affect social life of an individual.
2) Does social life get better at college? Caltech?</p>
<p>The good thing is that at Caltech everyone has to love math/science. Those that don’t usually end up transferring. </p>

<li><p>Yes, to a degree. Some people are downers wherever they are, while other people are always able to get things going. But for most people in the middle, environment is a large factor.</p></li>
<li><p>Depends how your social life was earlier. Caltech’s a lot of work, so for some, it’ll be a worse social life than in high school, while for others, who may not have found people who shared their interests in high school, Caltech would offer a much better social life.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>I’m tired of Caltech’s social life after three and a half years, but it is still way better than high school. My high school was full of idiots.</p>
<p>you’re tired of the social life? how so?</p>
<p>it’s non existent… or?</p>
