Chance of IMO medalist

<p>Do I have chance to MIT?</p>

<p>Standardized test :
SatII MathII 800
Physic 800</p>

<p>Toefl IBT 102</p>

<p>Awards:
Bronze medal, International mathematics olympiad
2 Gold medals , National mathematics olympiad</p>

<p>What do you do other than math?</p>

<p>Also, I feel like your country represented also makes a tad bit of a difference.</p>

<p>Personally, I feel like it’s very hard to say in these kinds of situations. Obviously, MIT attracts many IMO medalists (and physics and chemistry) but not all of them get in. Personally, I’m not all that sure what the reason was (language ability? lack of extracurriculars?..I’m almost inclined to think the former - I’m willing to believe that if you’re accomplished enough at science (read: international medal level), they might be more willing to overlook the “well-rounded” factor).</p>

<p>Yes, certainly an international medal is a huge hook. Many more medalists get in than don’t. But it alone will not get you in. It really is about the match between you and MIT. And there are some deal-breakers (for example, your English has to be good enough to cope with an environment where almost all the classes are taught in English).</p>

<p>It’s the IMO! You should be lucky to have one. But still, it’s not the only thing on your application. I’ll be cliche and say it again - well rounded-ness! </p>

<p>Obviously, the math part of you pretty round. How’s your other parts? Physics seems good too, I suppose.</p>
