Do I have a shot at MIT...?

<p>Well, I'm a rising junior and my overall gpa is a 6/7 in the IB scale, or about 3.7 in the GPA scale. I have a decent amount of EC's, but I don't really have anything math/science related as of right now... I'm aiming to make USAMO, USNCO (hopefully) in junior year, and a couple other prestigious math competitions and awards. My question is, do I have a chance at getting MIT? I know MIT students have straight As all throughout high school and probably got USAMO at least twice... but I just want to know if I can still get MIT :X</p>

<p>About 120 graduating seniors every year have USAMO qualification on their resume. MIT admits about 1500 people per year. So obviously most MIT students don’t have that on their resume’.</p>

<p>Of course, you have a chance. Junior year is the time to shine. Go all out.</p>

<p>I definitely did not have all A’s throughout high school… and never got in USAMO either, so yes, of course you still have a chance! :)</p>
