    Does anyone know how well (or otherwise) the Mass Bay program is regarded? I know Regis is considered to be great but I don't have any sense of whether the Mass Bay program is considered to be

    I didn't have either of those, and haven't heard anything similar....but it does seem to be getting more and more competitive. Good
