You all really need to answer the question that was asked, instead of just crushing a kids hopes, I’m sure he already knows it’s tough to get into both schools, no need to go digging into his past threads just to put him down and say how he has no chance(mom2012).
As for the question that was asked, uchicago, it really depends on preference when it comes down to things like school size, location, whether you want to be a part of a comp sci and electrical engineering department(MIT) or a separate comp sci school(CMU). Also, the focus of the cmu Comp sci school is much more on math and the antalytics of programming, and you are probably going go be surrounded more often with other comp sci kids. But obviously, both are amazing schools and a degree from either one would give you a great chance of getting a job anywhere.
And good luck! Don’t let what the people say on cc stop you from applying.
