Problem sets are the medium. Collaboration is encouraged officially and required practically. The pace assumes you're already strong — there's no remedial track.
How Fennie helps here
Fennie supports MIT's heavy problem-set culture with [calculus](/subject/calculus-1), [linear algebra](/subject/linear-algebra), and physics support — not as a replacement for psets, but as backup when concepts aren't clicking.
FAQ
Is MIT really as hard as people say?
Yes, especially the first two years. The fix isn't avoiding hard classes — it's building study groups early.
Does MIT grade-deflate?
Less than Caltech, more than some peers. P/NR first semester gives breathing room.
