I would not be worried about your son not surviving at Caltech because he is not smart enough. As sac said, they would not have admitted him if they didn’t think we was smart enough.

From what I have seen in my S, survival at Tech is not an issue of intelligence (which is probably a given in all the admitted students) but hard work, perseverance and accepting that a big sacrifice is required in order to get the big prize (the Caltech diploma.)
