What do you think of my odds?
I’d say you will get a good look from admissions. Your essays will be critical – fit is very important at Mudd.
@nowis2000 I would say the biggest problem is that you drive a silver mom-van, and play dragonvale. Also you might be mistaken for a young Al Franken which will work against you.
Actually, @AScreenName I think the admissions office is really looking for people who only wear really comfortable Merrells and sweatpants. Killer George Michael impressions help too, so I’d say you’ve got a chance
tbh I would personally be worried about the long term effects of having a rodent on your head
