<p>"Is MITES useful in applying to any college outside of MIT?"</p>
<p>no, as a matter of fact, its looked down upon</p>
<p>uh...no. MITES definately helps you because you have college professors evaluate you and tell you that you can handle their work. it has definately helped me in my admissions and most of my friends got into great schools other than MIT</p>
<p>Of course it is!! Just look at the alumni classes of MITES at its site. All sorts of other great universities select people who attend MITES.</p>
<p>Just look at this:
