Why I'm Not Applying to MIT

<p>“So you ask if it’s worth it to apply…it depends on how much the money and time means to you versus how low you feel the odds to be.”</p>

<p>Good answer, LazyBum201. I’m trying to weigh it out myself. Right now, the chances of me ‘attending’ (not being accepted) are very low. Before you ask, my number 1 school is slightly less selective than MIT, but still a crapshoot.</p>

<p>Thanks everyone for the responses. There are other reasons that are holding me back from applying other than ‘no humanities recommendation’. These are mainly my low chances and the fact that MIT is not my number 1 school. These reasons make me hesitant to ask for one humanities recommendation for one school that I’m not likely to attend.</p>
