<p>Wait a second! How'd you apply to a university without any further searching on its info?</p>

<p>Much of the raw data on that site can be seen either in the registrar's data (here</a>), or the common data set (here</a>), if you want to see the data for yourself.</p>

<p>wow! thanks a lot "Millerl1te" for leading me to that site. It certainly has some really cool info about MIT.</p>

<p>I did research it lol. I just never saw this profile until now. And its the subjective data that I found helpful, not the stuff I already found on the CDS, which is amazing too. Just thought I'd share this with cc and hopefully an applicant for later could find it helpful(?)</p>

<p>I didn't mean that the site wasn't useful. :) Just that the raw data's available for people to see, and in some cases may be more accurate -- for example, they list management as the most popular major at MIT, which isn't true if you look at undergrads alone.</p>

<p>I can't figure out where their numbers on majors are coming from (comparing them with MIT Registrar numbers). Course 15 (management) doesn't have anything close to that many undergrads, and it has <em>way</em> more than that if you factor in grads. And it's not remotely that gender-unbalanced. Course 2 (mechE) has way MORE undergrads than that, and way more women. Course 10 (chemE) also has way more undergrads than that. And I can't tell whether they are counting 6-2 as EE or CS.</p>
