Asking MIT Students How They Got Into MIT | GPA, SAT/ACT, Clubs, etc.

I'm never getting in.

MIT, more than most colleges in the US, has to be a good fit to be worth it. As hard as it is to get in, it is harder to get out. It mainly works because the students who do get in continue to develop their academic maturity year by year.

i feel like giving up, i have the stats outside of the SAT, i fked it up, i wanna give up man

@Ashton: have you thought about taking your roadshow international and visit leading UK universities ❤?

Skin color or anti-Semitism. For a real education… Georgia Tech 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Good job buddy, thanks

Im in junior year rn and im in Canada. In grade 9 i got a lot of 70s and 80s and in grade 10 it was better but still just 80s. In g11 second semester, I have over 95 in every subject except IB ENglish which is a 90. I want to go to a good university like MIT but my gpa is really on the lower end because of my fuckups from freshman and sophomore. idk if this is going to bring my application chances lower. It's dumb that even your past grades can affect your uni chances. It's really discouraging but I heard they weigh your g11 and g12 grades more plus look at the bigger picture and see how youve improved. Idk i felt like commenting this cause one of the guys mentioned he had ONE B in freshman when i have like 5

The dream of mine is to attend MIT, but I will be able to pursue my research in technology as an online student. Furthermore, MIT offers a wide range of scholarships.

Hii, that's amazing video!! Plss make one for Brown university🥺🙌

For me open the door and head to the bookstore and buy a T-shirt. Love MIT.

Dawg I’m not getting in stop putting this on my recommended 💀💀💀

Do a video for Stanford!

I didn’t go to harvard or mit but I knew a kid that went to mit that made kick ass acid. But yeah don’t believe the hype. Idk if it’s because I grew up in these neighborhoods but it is what it is. I do want my daughter to go to mit or harvard though, she just entered high school. Would like her to take a different path in life than myself.

very soon that will be me and everyone that wants to go to this school

You asked them all “do you mind” and they all said “yeah” like they were ready for an interview 🥲

Well im not gettin into this school. Does anyone know alternatives to this school, I'm interested in engineering but specifically aerospace engineering.

Let me summarize the entire video for you:
If you got more than 1 B throughout the entirety of highschool, don't bother applying.
If you got below a 1500 on the SAT, don't bother applying.
If you didn't do tons of extra curricular activities, don't bother applying.
It's the type of school for people who had their entire lives planned out already when they were in middleschool.

Lex friedman's vibes (the carhatt guy)

Honestly I have not been part of the international Olympiads, taken science and coding projects. I am just an avg person.
But MIT is my dream, and I dream to be part of this community.

I love your positive energy sm

I only heard many chinese got into top schools by paying big donations

My son-in-law wants our grandson to study close to home in Scotland "St Andrews College" (no 2 after Oxford), our grandson wants to either Oxford or Harvard, but my secret dream is for him to be able to study at MIT. Will my dream come true ?

Asht = not that woman! I.e. that's why. Her= a woman nazi

Dream life, dream school i m so open to CS but not interested in math, how can i manage with that? I want to get into mit class of 28 but how? Is math the important part of MIT?

My dream school! I feel like with my stats I can get in, but I'm scared that I don't really know how to project my own personality into my application...

I just love the way he smiles🤣

So many asians and blacks, woke shit, anti- white racist colleges

Hi! you really helped me :) because after finishing sophomore year with two b's I just lost all hope and MIT has been my dream for a long time, but once I watched your video, it helped me really believe in myself and really has made me believe that not only as a student but as a person that I can get into MIT. Thanks so much for making us believe in ourselves because sometimes we all lose hope but we all need it regained and you did just that! :D

My son graduated from MIT on May 25, 2022, is in mathematics and computer science degrees,and is about to graduate with master degree in computer science.Thanks MIT.Good luck to all future applicants!God bless!

wtf this isn't even fair, its not even close. i take the a-level system and when he really said he got 10 9's in GCSE and 4 A*s, my heart dropped; im completely outclassed

e

I'm not sure why, but you just came into my feed like a ray of hope into the darkness! I was literally giving up on even applying to MIT.

But watching you made me feel comfortable for some reason. The chaos of uncertainty died down a bit, and now I feel like I'd be happier to atleast try

Computer science costs yearly 148k dollars now in MIT. I'm concerned that ıs MIT good because of the quality education system or all that money help the school to afford for opportinities that are given to students.

Jesus I only have a 3.5 GPA do I have a chance

Who's the green jacket boy in the last interview?! you are completely nice, good... nearly perfect. I believe you will be impactful person! wish you good day~

😮Awesome Man.

They took 4.0 in MIT, they're not individuals 👽

In my opinion I feel that your grades doesn't define your intelligence at all you could be an intelligent kid but just not a hard worker when it comes to school

must have missed extracurriculars, i just found them boring. I got rejected this last admission cycle even with a 4.0.

Bro your quality improving with every video, keep going!
