Re: FIRST Class of 2014, Where are we going?
Not a HS student anymore but I am amazed at the number of folks applying to WPI. A bit curious if FRC's control system affiliation with them has any bearing on that decision?
As an RPI alumnus, surprised not to see as much enthusiasm for my alma mater. Both are good schools. WPI was sort of RPI's dark twin sibling across the state border whom we didn't interact with much. Ultimately, all that matters is what gives you the best opportunity to apply your knowledge and skills outside the classroom (ie internships!!!)
