MIT International applicants for 05?

<p>But i'm sure we both would'nt make such a huge mistake ;)</p>

<p>Of course, not... MIT beats all! I've been reading the MIT threads on the old CC forum, and Ooh! I'm so excited. Maybe a little too early since we won't know until March, but, still, I'm excited. :) I'm looking for stats of last year's MIT int'l applicants who were accepted... just to see where we stand. Post some if you find any!</p>

<p>Im trying out for 05, from australia but I don't think I have much of a chance. SAT1 only turned out as 1360 and I am not exactly nation champion at anything. But then I guess even for people who are geniuses, its still a roll of the dice so who knows.</p>

<p>Dont bother about the SAT's too much, just write brilliant essays and hope for the best</p>

<p>ya.. prob...
but hmm... i also applied ed to princeton. :D</p>

<p>Did any of u gat a preliminary 3-page long questionnaire from ur interviewer?</p>

<p>"Did any of u gat a preliminary 3-page long questionnaire from ur interviewer?"</p>

<p>No, i think they do it only in india and China and other huge countries, coz the no of applicants is huge. they'll probably just select few for the interview based on the questionnaire.</p>

<p>and good luck for the interview, my interview got waived (should i be :) or :()</p>

<p>Have you got your interviews? I haven't.</p>

<p>ppl applying 2 MIT have such exciting lives...</p>

<p>akash, when did you apply and when did you get that questionnaire? Coz I received a letter along with the application form saying there were no ECs near me. The last date for contacting your EC is Dec 1st and I'm worried!</p>

<p>how important are SATs for MIT???...esp. for international applicants who have good grades...decent e.cs???...</p>

<p>I cant say.
I do know however that a guy with a perfect 4000 got rejected last year</p>

<p>Just submitted my Part 2! Kinda worried!!!</p>

<p>Anyone here applies from UK? Do you send your supplemental material using recorded delivery? How long will it take?</p>

<p>Do I have to put my Name and MIT ID number on every single page in the supplemental pack?</p>

<p>Will our application be processed with the Mid-Year Grade Report unticked?</p>

<p>Ishan, one of the ppl on CC
1500, 800, 800, 800, 700 + bronze medal at IOI + great Computer EC's = Rejected</p>

<p>Even though China wins IMO almost very single year, MIT only accepts 11 UGs with Chinese passports... Less than South Korea(13) and = Thailand. It's solely due to political reasons.</p>

<p>"Even though China wins IMO almost very single year, MIT only accepts 11 UGs with Chinese passports... Less than South Korea(13) and = Thailand. It's solely due to political reasons." </p>

<p>btw its 11=total Chinese Ugrads at MIT,
so -> each year they accept around 3 from China</p>

<p>btw,Ishan was rejected coz he had low marks on his class 12 Boards</p>

<p>but c'mon a 70 in Physics is not that bad.</p>

<p>hi ppl...is anyone applying online to mit???? the portal keeps giving errors...so was wondering if anyone else faces the same problem...how're your sat scores??? if any of you're from india...were any ecs located in your area?? there weren't any in mine...i wanted to have an interview...coz i felt that's matter a lot...but don't think it's possible...
umm...and yeah one more thing...what boards are you ppl from? do icse marks count? mine are not too great...</p>

<p>I am applying online, and my main problem - my scholastic distinction cannot placed in the space given, but it's, I think, one of the important parts of every student's application.</p>
