<p>I don't think MIT's chanceable on stats. but hey you show math orientation. GL</p>

6

<p>ty and just to add to the math thing for future chancers, I wrote an essay literally about random math and dimensions and what I thought about (crazy enough for MIT? lol)</p>

7

<p>something called diversity... hope u understand... great to see you being so into conformism (sarcasm)...</p>

8

<p>everyone at MIT is math oriented... even humanities.. nothing from ur app makes ur distinct... no offense... just brutal honesty... any nerd can pull off a 98... and do what u did...</p>

<p>my ap eng teacher made us write a certain type of essay all year then a week before the AP she says ok we are going to practice AP ones and well, they were completely different (i dont think anyone out of like 35 people got a 5)
but unfortunately, no real awards that weren't given to me by the school</p>

<p>3's in APs don't make too much difference. I had a total of three 2's (AP Phys, AP Gov, AP FrLang) and I got by fine.</p>
