haha, I went to harvey mudd.
kango: trust me, you're a dork.
But it's the same at all those schools you're looking at, there are just different grades/and types of dorkiness that people follow.
From comparing my own experiences to those of other people I know that went to the other schools, I'm willing to wager you'd have a similar experience at any of the places. I'm probably a bit biased towards mudd, but the fact that you can interact with the kids from the other schools (if you need to buy weed you can go to pitzer, or if you need a girl for whatever reason you can go to scripps) was a pretty sweet deal.
Harvey Mudd itself, though, is even more quirky than the rest. At caltech and MIT, you have people that work a lot and know a lot. At Mudd, you have people that work a lot and know a lot and ride unicycles to class.
You'll get yourself a more 'traditional' experience at MIT, I think, and also the most respect for having gone there. You'll have a very strange experience at Mudd, and very little respect outside of california for it, though i'd wager you're just as prepared as anyone else.
But as far as those questions you asked, the three are just about indistinguishable.
