Currently attending Caltech (BS ‘22) and thankfully it is still the same way now. If nothing else, it helps a little to take the edge off of the rigor and difficulty (at least, in my opinion). Specifically, if my finals are going to be ~4 hours long each, at least I can choose when and where to do them :-)
Nice to see that Caltech still operates that way! The Honor System there had a very large and positive influence on my later career and interactions with others.
