<p>Do you know if there is any book written by an alumn about his/her experience at MIT (positive/negative doesn't matter). Because recently, I have been very interested in what I terribly overlooked last year, when I applied to MIT, that is "MIT culture".</p>
<p>The only one I know of is called "The Idea Factory: Learning to Think at MIT" by Pepper White. I'm actually reading it right now, and it's pretty good. It was actually written by a graduate student, not an undergrad, who went to MIT in the 80s, but most of it is still relevant (and pretty amusing from the current MIT student's point of view.)</p>
<p>Thanks Laura. I've just purchased this book, so I will read it and see. Thanks again.</p>
