<p>Keep in mid, there is a high drop out rate at NMT due to its rigor. It is relatively easy to get into and many kids might have to put on big boy pants and get through it. Staying in is a big problem from what I’ve heard. Only the dedicated graduate; there is nothing to do in Socorro. Everyone there is there to succeed or they all burn out. I think that explains it. It weeds out the unprepared.</p>
