Harvey Mudd vs. Rice vs. Columbia

<p>“I’ll probably be asking more about this after and if I get in to HMC, but what about physics?”</p>

<p>You can try to pass out, but don’t count on it. You’ll be surprised how many students at HMC are as well prepared as you. You’ll have a leg up on some material but these courses are a lot more serious than other colleges. HMC recognizes that most everyone has gone the extra mile to take the most advanced classes possible… so the only edge you may have would be from the class you took at Stanford. Even then, however, I have to wonder how in depth you went if a single class covered E&M, Optics (which really is just E&M), and Modern Physics. </p>

<p>Drinking was… interesting. Red red wine…</p>
