<p>Hey, I’m AG, from New Jersey, and I became really interested in MIT when I visited it this past weekend, actually. This school is basically my personality in a nutshell, which is actually why I want to get in even moreso than the academics. As my mother described it: “it’s a school full of smartasses!”
My main worry is that I don’t bring anything particularly special to the table, other than a big interest in music. I don’t have really any extracurriculars involving math and science (although I’m probably doing math club/science league this year), and the only contest I was in was the AMC 12 which I scored about an 80 in. Even with music, I was never in any honors bands or anything, but I’m in every band offered in my school, and even the orchestra.
Also, I’m planning to apply EA.</p>
