Personally, I think arguing about the workload is a little pointless. No one knows for sure, unless you did the same classes over again at the other school.

What we CAN definitively say is that Caltech’s results in terms of alumni achievement are substantially and significantly greater than those of Harvey Mudd. Yes, Caltech students are ahead numbers- and experience-wise to start with, but I doubt that 40 SAT points or whatever the difference is accounts for, e.g., the huge disparity between the 32 Nobel Prizes that Caltech has racked up over ~86 years and the 0 that HMC has racked up over ~50 years.
