<p>jesus christ! if MIT doesn't want you I'm sure the US Special Forces would!</p>

<p>Lol, comment on the math score though? Is it ok?</p>

<p>Gotta remember, I'm a fat lineman. Special Forces ops are normally stealthy, something that doesn't really happen at 280lbs.</p>

<p>700M is fine, as are your other scores :)</p>

<p>Past your scores, grades, and rank, it's everything "else".</p>

<p>Yeah, i'm anxiously hoping, as evidenced by my insta-replies. I know MIT is always a crapshoot, but hey, still gotta apply. Just glad to know my SAT math doesn't knock me out of the game. It's either this or CMU probably (Dad's a big alum, oh wait he was a CMU electrical engineer if that matters at all).</p>

<p>It definitely doesn't knock you out of the game. :)</p>

7

<p>Don't worry about test scores, you're fine. Concentrate on the things that are more important (to you and the Institute)--your passions.</p>

<p>Hopefully I'll be playing with you on the Engineers next year :)</p>
