<p>I happened to attend Caltech for grad school, and what you just wrote about the school is the most inaccurate, fallacious piece of nonsense I’ve ever read on this board.</p>
<p>

<p>Okay, just admit it, you’re a goofy sixteen year old who knows nothing about Caltech (or probably any other university mentioned in this thread either). In their admissions criteria, CIT looks primarily at math and science accomplishments, not whether someone is “interesting and well-rounded”. </p>
<p>Why don’t you visit the Caltech board and repeat your statements about the university there? (There’s even an active admissions officer there) </p>
<p>After that, come back and tell us what they think of you.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Perhaps someone might take you seriously if you weren’t a juvenile little kid making up facts and figures about universities you know nothing about and likely never will, as they will all deny you admissions.</p>

<p>Those are easy, mechanical problems that any half way decent math major in the US would solve instantly. </p>
<p>Moreover, comparing them to the AIME is silly; not only is the AIME a piece of cake for any MIT/Harvard/Princeton etc. math major, but the AIME tests mathematical ingenuity and problem solving, while the JEE tests memorization skills and talents for engineeringmajors.</p>
<p>The fact that the test is for math majors underscores how poor ITT is in the mathematics and exact sciences.</p>
