<p>In all honesty I think if you study for those exams both ACT/SAT to bump up your score, and choose MITEs over SSP if you get accepted, in addition to writing good essays and getting a good recs of course, will pretty much be in good position for admissions.</p>

<p>Plus at least your not class of 2013.</p>

<p>I really want to do some kind of research, but our school does not have any organization that supports research, neither they offer any fund for research. I just can’t find any access to those facilities. </p>

<p>I am very anxious about MITES… They have so many applicants this year!!! as the day goes on I feel like my hope is diminishing…</p>

<p>thank you for all your response!! I am studying SAT all spring break to boost the score!</p>
