MITES 2011 Information & Discussion

<p>So I take it is a bad bad thing that I am starting now?</p>

<p>Since my school runs on a different terms (we don’t have semesters) and now my current math teacher really doesn’t know me that well (less than a month of class w/ him) am I allowed to use my old math teacher as my rec? It says current but I feel like they meant first term math teacher since they’re sort of assuming we have a semester-based system.</p>

<p>@ketracer
its not bad, your just gonna have to supercram to make ur app pro.</p>

<p>Alll I have left is the essays and I love to write</p>

<p>ugh…I have a llllloooooonnnnnggggg way to go lol</p>

<p>Just sent off my transcripts and test scores(My GC isn’t the best at sending things on time). I’ve officially finished all my parts of the app. Now it’s time to freak out!!! :slight_smile: Does anyone know the stats of accepted students?</p>

<p>^ lucky, I still have all the essays to do… :c</p>

<p>don’t freak out too much guys. I did my essays literally the night before and I still got in. And trust me they were neither creative nor free of mistakes.</p>

<p>Anyone else having trouble saving their recommendation information page? It seems that whenever I click the save button, it wipes everything on the page.</p>

<p>@Kevin Yes! I’m having the same problem too :C</p>

<p>Did anybody send their letters of recommendation? did you send all three in the same package?</p>

<p>I’m confused…are we supposed to use the forms for the application, or are they gonna send an email to our teachers for recs? Cuz, the pdfs are for 2010 app…and yet…the online information spaces are not working…MITES is not answering my emails either…so meh…</p>

<p>i have a SUPER IMPORTANT QUESTION. in the instructions , it says that for MITES we have to “upload official copies of PSAT, PLAN, SAT I AND ACT SCORES’
it also says to 'upload one wallet-size or passport-size photograph”
and we are supposed to upload them in the online application, before jan 18
WHERE AM I SUPPOSED TO UPLOAD THIS? i cant find where on the checklist … aaah!
please help me … thanksssss :)</p>

<p>Is there supposed to be a confirmation or anything of the sort when they receive our supplementary materials?</p>

<p>@collegezomg</p>

<p>If you look on page 7, my post explains what information I received from their admissions office. </p>

<p>It seems that a lot of stuff for this program is not very well maintained. The recommendation forms in the application and the website are different, some forms aren’t working, and some directions aren’t very clear. But at least they respond to their email very fast.</p>

<p>hey everyone, i’m new to CC and i have a question for all of you guys. so i submitted my online app four days or so ago, but i haven’t gotten an email from MIT to confirm it and neither have any of my teachers/GC. am i supposed to get some sort of email? thanks for any help [:</p>

<p>Hi guys,
I’m also new to CC and I had the same question as nemosum.</p>

<p>My teachers haven’t gotten an email either…Is their anybody whose teachers have already submitted their letter?</p>

<p>Also, do you think it hurts your chances if they send in a hard copy? One of my teachers would rather send in a hard copy. I don’t know why…but she just does.</p>

<p>Anybody want to post their stats?</p>

<p>@kithoon
sure.
GPA: 3.3
SAT: will send in February 10
Class Rank: 59/412
Extracurricular Activities: FIRST Robotics, Debate</p>

<p>yeah… im confused too
how do we attatch our psat scores and whatnot?
i think they send the request for recommendation letters after everything the deadline has passed =)
SO NERVOUS HOLY CRAP</p>
