<p>What sets Caltech apart? All the schools are different, and they will all offer you an excellent education. We are small, so it is somewhat easy for students to get involved with research. We also have a very rigorous core (including lots of physics), which other schools don’t have. But the biggest thing you should look at is the student culture, and where you think you fit in the best. For some people, it’s definitely Caltech, and for other people, it isn’t.</p>
