I want to get into MIT, what should I do?

Hello,
Im currently in Ninth grade im going to take AP Calculus BC in a week (may 5 2015)… I have tried past papers and got 5 in every single one of them with honest correcting, no cheating and in time. Im also going to give grade 5 guitar this november and my teacher is confident i will get either merit or distinction. Im in the IGCSE curriculum and will take IBDP in 12 th grade. I live in india and am a citizen of the U.S. what should i do after AP calc in order to get into MIT, I really want to get into it and I understand it is very hard.

Thank you

Speaking as a current MIT student, it is indeed hard to get into, and we can’t really tell you “what to do” after AP Calculus to get into MIT. Of course, you should aim for high grades/marks and test scores. Besides that, do activities and other things you enjoy doing, and find ways to get involved.

Also, judging from this post it seems like you have a bit of an “MIT or bust” feeling; don’t. There are plenty of other great universities in the US, so I encourage looking into other universities as well.
