<p>You are an excellent student with a very strong chance. Work on your essays and recommendations. Continue working hard.</p>

<p>my first reaction to your post title is “don’t we all?”</p>

<p>that aside, I think any MIT adcom member would tell you that your academics are solid - so just work on those essays and recs and the interview.</p>

<p>curious - are you a rising senior or junior or younger?</p>

<p>rising junior</p>

<p>Just out of curiosity, but what did you actually learn in Bangladesh?</p>

<p>I use the adjective ‘actually’ because I’m somewhat curious about particulars of it, and partly because I want to know how exactly an experience shapes one’s world view.</p>
