<p>Hi!</p>
<p>I am from Mumbai and am applying to the SSP organised by MIT and Caltech this year. Is anyone else applying there too? I would love to get in touch with a fellow applicant. Also, please mention your stats if possible.</p>
<p>You can get in touch with this previous applicant who was rejected last year.</p>
<p>@mak1702, how was the application process for you? What where your stats while applying? </p>
<p>I have started working on my essays. I have achieved a fair amount of success in the olympiads(both the real and the “other” ones) and am a lead author on a paper that got accepted by a journal(not naming it though in this forum). Hopefully, it gets published by the time I apply.</p>
<p>The problem is that I joined a new college this year(after passing out from 10th) and saw a slight dip in my performance. I got around 88% in my first term exams with a disappointing 128/150 in PCM. I am mainly worried out that. I am taking the SAT this January and will send them the scores after I receive them.</p>
<p>What are the main parts that you would suggest me to look out for? Did you apply to any other summer program?</p>
<p>BUMP!</p>
