<p>i think its a mistake to pick a college based on what would make your uncle or grandfather happy- its your education so pick what is the best fit for you</p>
<p>If you have not already done so, you should try to seek out people you may know who are currently attending these schools to get a better perspective on them. For instance, have recent graduates from your high school attended either RPI or Drexel? If so, contact them to discuss your options and the pros and cons of each school.</p>
