Too much supplemental information for MIT? Help!

Applying to College
1

<p>Hi everyone!</p>

<p>I am applying to MIT as early action and I was wondering if it is possible to send too much supplemental information. I am a maker and do a lot of side projects of my own that I would like to share with MIT Admissions. This is what my application looks like so far:</p>

<ul>
<li>Standard MIT App (Essays/bio/2 teacher recommendations)
-1 outside recommendation regarding a team project I led</li>
<li>A Maker portfolio </li>
<li>Science Research evaluation letter from a mentor and my research abstract</li>
</ul>

<p>I want to send an abstract and pamphlet of the team project I led as well. Is this too much or should i just send all of these supplements? You opinions are greatly appreciated. Thanks!!</p>

<p>I would go with either a letter from your mentor or the team leader, not both. Unless you feel that they say different things about you. Include the abstract in the “optional information” section at the end, don’t send the pamphlet. Maker portfolio sounds great.</p>
