<p>Hi MITChris. I’d like you to know that your presence on CC is quite valuable. You’re one of the only few CC posters (your colleagues on the MIT section of this message board included) that i find reliable… I hope people like you will multiply on this forum. Cheers!</p>
<p>since i’m at it, allow me to ask something. </p>
<p>MIT is one of the highest performers in terms of yield rates. I applied to MIT about 10 years ago, and sadly, wasn’t accepted. I, however, got into some ivies, duke, rice, bowdoin, mudd and cambridge and warwick in the UK. I eventually enrolled in cambridge, which was at that time my 3rd choice. (I wasnt also accepted at berkeley, which was my 2nd choice.) but had i been admitted to all the schools that I applied to, i would have gone to MIT for sure. for me, MIT is the greatest school on earth in areas where they are present. having said that, it’s hard to turn down an offer from MIT. so, that makes me wonder where do most MIT admits who didn’t enroll end up studying. I can safely assume Harvard gets the bulk of them. But aside from Harvard, which other schools get those supposedly MIT students? any figures for Stanford, Berkeley and Caltech?</p>
