<p>Awwww, we just missed each other, not that it would've have been completely stalker-ish, creepy, and awkward.. but yeah. I didn't actually stay on campus.. I just sat in on classes, took the tour and infosession, and walk around. It was pretty cool though :) I might see if I can stay overnight with a friend in the fall.</p>
<p>I went for the junior fly-in, I would most definitely suggest staying : ) and it's so much better when you have a friend there to show you around because then you get a better feel for campus and what it's like to be a student there</p>

<p>I'm visiting this week!</p>
<p>XiΞiX - I think with a name like that you deserve to get into MIT</p>
<p>ps. it is secretely my heart's desire to apply to MIT, but I would NEVER get in -- thus I've decided to avoid it all together. I wish you all the best of luck :)</p>
<p>So.. you're applying to Yale?</p>
<p>correct!</p>
<p>Well you see, I've never done anything remotely related to math or science in my life. I don't even plan on taking Math IIC and I highly doubt that my math SAT score will be above 730 (writing/reading should be goody though).</p>
<p>... maybe I will apply? But the not taking IIC could be a problem, am I right?</p>
<p>Technically, you can take IC... They say that they don't have a preference of which level, but I think that IIC is better-looked-upon just because it's harder for lack of a better explanation.</p>
<p>^^ no, I seriously think they look upon them both the same, just depending on your high school background. Also, the "easier" content of I is made up by the fact that it has a much harder scale, from what I've heard.</p>
<p>I guess yeah, but still psychologically, doesn't math 2 have some sort of impact? I mean.. the easier curve just tests how good of a test-taker you are.. Idk.</p>
<p>Anyone have ideas about what majors they are looking for? (just asking)</p>
<p>haha um. 18 or 15, with either double major or minors in 21w and 21m :D
or just some combination of the above.</p>
<p>Neat ! best o'luck !</p>
<p>haha i'm just all over the place.... what about you?</p>

<p>I hope we all get to meet sometime. i was wondering though guys, what do you guys do extracurricular wise at your schools. i mean i know MIT is Engineering based and all but what kind of activities have you guys been panning out over the last three years?</p>
<p>I visited yesterday! It was amazing:-)</p>
<p>Extracurriculars: I do a lot of music/artsy stuff. Pep band, dance, theatre techie, flute, etc.</p>
<p>This thread makes me laugh. I can't believe that the '12s are no longer the hypercollegecrazy class--it's been transferred to the '13s! </p>
<p>IMHO, 2012 has a MUCH better ring to it. Sorry, guys. =P</p>
<p>Oh, and good luck! Getting in EA is awesome, but if you're deferred it DEFINITELY isn't the end of the world. Bballdude and I can both attest to the fact that a significant number of deferees (even dumb ones like me who don't send post-deferment updates until mid-February) DO get in. =P</p>
<p>Haha la montagne, but 2012 is the apocalypse!

<p>Extracurriculars: A lot of piano and creative writing stuff, then math and science things during school. :D Just nothing amazing... which kind of sucks. :/</p>
