Chance an eager beaver junior for MIT

<p>^ good ECs, but again they are not above average, but its great that you are passionate. definitely try to highlight your strengths. good luck</p>

<p>I would really appreciate more feedback guys and gals!</p>

<p>@ImSoAmbitious, there’s more to life than chasing highers scores. I know a guy with an 1850 on the SAT who got into MIT. If your essays really stand out and you are well in the range. Go for it!</p>

<p>Sorry for not replying on this forum for so long.</p>

<p>I agree with some of the other posters. While your test scores and GPA/rank are great, your EC’s are only average to above average. MIT only admitted ~8-9% of applicants last year, so you want to highlight your passions, especially ones in math/science fields.</p>

<p>You may be more fit for Ivies (e.g. “that other school down Mass Ave” as MITers call it), but that’s entirely your decision. Good luck!</p>

<p>Also, don’t worry too much about a 3 in AP Stats. MIT doesn’t give credit for 5’s on AP Stats.</p>

<p>Thanks rspence that is reassuring. Any other peeps wanna chime in- I’ll chance back!</p>

<p>Okay, a 34, which ImSoAmbitious mentioned, is not going to hurt your chances at MIT (or anywhere, for that matter).</p>

<p>haha thank you emberjed. Bumping for other opinions.</p>

<p>MIT doesn’t care for legacy</p>
