<p>I’ll repeat what i posted in the MIT forum just for curiosity…</p>
<p>I’ve heard many versions from different people, but none of them were actually college students… what would you guys (and girls) say that the main differences between one and the other are…, and which one would you recommend for an undergrad program</p>
<p>Oh man. Let’s not do this again. I have too much homework tonight.</p>
<p>Let me give you some previous (very extensive) discussions on this subject (with plenty of college students represented.) This should help in not going over the same stuff many times. If you have questions after reading these, I’m sure lots of people will be happy to help.</p>
