<p>cmosr - Pasadena’s a beautiful place, but I don’t think that particular change of venue will solve your problem. The work will be just as challenging, but you’ll be a year behind your peers in experience. No sports. And you’ll be leaving Boston, which many acclaim to be the best college town in America.</p>
<p>I’m not saying you should stay at MIT … only that you should have an excellent understanding of what makes MIT “wrong” for you BEFORE considering a change. Student counseling at MIT might be a good place to begin that investigation.</p>
