<p>I believe...</p>
<p>ZOMG IT IS OUT!! I GOT CONTACT INFO FOR EC ALREADY!!
everyone from my school gets the same EC
he donated to our robotics club 2 years ago!!!</p>
<p>TOO EXCITED!!!!</p>
<p>Contact info? What do you do to get that?</p>
<p>if they have an EC around you, it's on the page right after you log in,
the dashboard(or whatever it is called).</p>
<p>Good luck everyone!</p>
<p>Is there a link up yet to the .PDF? </p>
<p>(Son is away at summer program, and only he knows his MyMIT log-in.)</p>
<p>ye tokenadult i'm not seeing the pdf. it should come soon though i'm assuming</p>
<p>good luck 12ers!</p>
<p>tokenadult, isn't your son only a Sophomore? I "know" you from AoPS.</p>
<p>Haha, can't blame a father and community leader for caring about something so important!</p>
<p>I love your posts on both here and AOPS, tokenadult!</p>
<p>Wow, this brings back memories...daaang. I feel old. :(</p>
<p>Wow, I remember last year when the app came out.. 1 yr later and I'm an entering student. :-)</p>
<p>Good luck everyone, and don't forget to apply to some other schools - I recommend applying to Caltech, CMU, and RPI - I'm pretty sure I would have been pretty happy at any one of those. Don't forget a safety as well - I know someone who ended up being rejected from everywhere he applied - forced to take a skip year :-/</p>

<p>Good advice. Don't let that happen to you.</p>

Yes, that's quite common. The expectation is that the EC really gets to know the school and can put the student's achievements into context.<br>
Whereas with international EC's, we get students from all over the place.</p>
<p>That's pretty cool!
but also quite scary, since I'll be compared with all the genius at school</p>
<p>Let's see if I can paste in the link to the .PDF here. </p>
