Why I'm Not Applying to MIT

<p>I am not aware of any other school that specifically requires a science/math teacher recommendation and a humanities recommendation. Just a heads up: the MIT web site will track all your application materials received on line and they will track the actual MIT Recommendation Forms (but not a general recommendation letter if you submit those).</p>

<p>If you don’t put in a serious, well-planned effort on your MIT application, I think they’ll be able to determine that. It’s not like the schools that accept the Common App.</p>

<p>If anyone thinks taking the SAT II is too much effort: then 4 years of MIT is not going to be a fit for you IMO.</p>
