| The Kindest Most Thoughtful Adcoms Are At Mit I have spoken to many students and I must say Adcoms everywhere should take the lead from MIT. The admissions people at MIT are kind, thoughtful, considerate and recognize that we (students,applicants, undergrads) are human beings with feelings. We are not just statistics competing for entrance which is what many cold hearted people in the business seem to think. I think too that MIT cares for the student in a way no other school does based on the conversations with my friends and the kind of blogs MIT adcoms have created. Matt's blog shows that he understands what it is like to be a kid and must have been a fun interesting fantastic kid in high school. It seems the older more serious adcoms should get out of the business and learn to make this difficult grueling process more fun and creative- and get with it. Anyway though I attend another school I wanted to point out what everyone is saying online about MIT everywhere and I am sure the personality of MIT will place it well above the Ivies where it belongs.
