<p>Sport:
I have been involved into Taekwondo for 5-6 years and gained black belt!!
Also I like to do something new, because of it I did boxing also go to swimming, play soccer in school team.</p>
<p>Music:
I play on "dombra"(Kazakh national music instrument), guitar</p>
<p>This summer I'm going to spend in Boston (kaplan school) and also do volonteering.</p>
<p>I participate some republic olympiadas (math), also I do some science-projects (math), I won a competition "leader of 21st century" in my country. I took online cources from edx.com</p>
<p>Are you from Kazak…Im guessing you are. In that case there is definitely no such “MIT material” If you have done awesome things (if others like your classmates feel that way) then you are a good applicant…Anyways you are MIT material academically so don’t worry. Just enjoy the app :)</p>
<p>Your stats are competitive for MIT. So are your ECs. Really nail your essays and I’d say you have a nice shot. Given, it’s a crap shoot, but apply to lots of schools and I’m sure you’ll get in somewhere fantastic. Best of luck.</p>
<p>As a domestic applicant, you would be a good candidate for admission to top 10 schools in terms of your academic qualifications, but there are a lot of people with better ones (unless you have done very well in the math olympiads or if your math research is good). I mean, basically you are a valedictorian with near-perfect SATs–a lot of people fit that description who apply to MIT. Your non-academic qualifications sound very strong though.</p>
<p>However, MIT does limit the amount of internationals they admit. (I’m assuming you are not a U.S. citizen or permanent resident.) They may admit only like 150 a year. So clearly it’s a very strong pool.</p>
<p>I could see you getting in, but the strength of the international pool will make it especially tough. It’s definitely worth a shot, but don’t feel bad if you don’t get in.</p>
<p>What is “kaplan school”? I thought that was just for the SAT.</p>
<p>Why disabled people or orphans? I ask because you posted in another thread,
</p>
<p>What is it about disabled people and orphans? And how do you help both through the same organization? It seems as if their needs would be rather different. Orphans need clothes, toys, an education, someone to show them they can do something better than shoot up krokodil and be homeless once they turn 18. Disabled people (adults) need help cleaning the house, being aware of and taking advantage of resources that are available in the area, someone to check up on them regularly.</p>
<p>Did you actually start an organization, at your school or otherwise, that helps orphans and/or disabled people? Is it a real, functional organization, which really truly helps people? What does the organization do to help people? What is your role in this organization? What do you do to help people through this organization? What will happen to this organization after you graduate and go off to the States for college? How has being in this organization impacted your long-term goals and hopes and dreams?</p>
<p>Hmm. So This organization helps orphans to study, do their homework and just helps children.
And another club that helps disabled people is like a part of former organization.
So I created this club in my school and I’m president of this club. Yup, we go to orphanage 5 times a week. I have a assistant who helped me to create and she study at 9th grade (we have 11 years system in our school, I’m currently on 10th grade) she will be president when I will graduate. These children tought me something: work in team(they consider each others as a brother/sister) and many other things</p>
<p>okay, I’ll write…
It all started from my childhood. I studied at school with orphans. So most of them became my friends. I really liked them. But at 1st grade when we started learn alphabet and write letters, my friends(orphans) always had problems, because they hadn’t someone who would help do homework, who would sit next to you and teach you how write or something. They never did homework and took “F” but it just worsened their situation. Because of it I always regretted them and tried to help but they always said that they didn’t need for my help, they even didn’t want study. After several years I change my school and forgot them. But I still regret them, I don’t know where do they live, study now… Then I decided to inspire orphans to learn English(English is 3rd language), to study well and said them why they need to study well at school,said them about best universities, about who they could become in the future if study well…
I decided to create club in my school for any volonteers. And now we teach orphans, help them do homework, check their diary sometimes laud them if they do well at the school, because I know that they need attention, warmth. Now I consider these children as my brothers/sisters. Once in 2 months we organize fair, students bring pies, cakes, which they did by themselves, we sell these pies and cakes, and for money we buy toys, books.</p>
<p>If that is your passion, then try to help in a significant way. Do the after school stuff to help them with their studies. In addition, put in extra hours to start a Lego League:</p>
