Pros

the challenge and the steep learning curve. also, the school expectancy that its students should be proficient in more than one field of science. A very good place to meet exceptionally smart people. also, it was surprising how much money the school pay for student group for extra-curricular activities

Cons

Hard. sometime depressing. challenging research topics. not all departments have a system in place to graduate their students in 5 years or less

Pros

- Incessant pool of intellectual stimulus - Exposure to the most cutting-edge research in science and technology - Youthful and vibrant city of Cambridge

Cons

- Salaries/stipends are not exactly commensurate with the uber-expensive surrounding of Cambridge - Lack of subsidized housing for most grad students - Unpaid TA positions (not the case at that other school in Cambridge)
