<p>Oh pffft bern's post is all stereotype. <<em>< ></em>></p>
<p>Oh and another tidbit - MIT has always had a policy of admitting women, but it wasn't until about 20 years after it opened that one actually attended... I think she graduated in '91? But I'm not positive on that.</p>
<p>maybe ya'll should stop arguing about how important you think you deserve for your high SAT score to be and work on the things that will not only get you in to college, but also will matter in the long run (job experience, internships, community service, etc)</p>
<p>What about those of us who are in college - or even graduated from college already?</p>
<p>That's funny because one side of this is specifically arguing how those scores aren't important.</p>
<p>i'm relatively new to the board, but i think this must be the one topic with the highest percentage of posts from the girls! (which is a good/new thing, right?) :D</p>
<p>hey bern, that conversation is hella funny, and I can totally see it happening! (no offence to MITers, it's just that some of them ARE indeed like that...)</p>
<p>Mmkay. Yes. Some MIT students could probably be described as stereotypical nerds. But a great many of us are very unstereotypical nerds -- we love what we're doing, and we're good at it, but we can keep it in the bag in polite conversation. I promise that if you saw me on the street, you'd never guess I went to MIT unless you saw me wearing my MIT Cheerleading jacket. My rocket scientist boyfriend is one of the top-ranked freestyle skiiers in the country. How's that for stereotypical nerd?</p>
<p>Funny post bern.</p>
