Both schools are great but MIT is not a school for indecision so I think you had a bit of luck and ended up at the right school for you. I lived in Cambridge for many years and know both schools can be intense but that Harvard will encourage students to explore a bit and express themselves because they know the other students will teach you as much as the school. MIT wants you to learn to focus like a laser beam on the subject you have chosen to major in, great professors and incredible instruction but you don’t want to be finding your way while competing with driven classmates.
