Oh, lord, make up? Nothing. Several of the classes in my graduate program feel like sophomore-level MIT courses, and those of us from MIT were encouraged to skip the first-year intro courses, that sort of thing.
MIT's BCS program relies heavily on the scientific literature -- many courses don't have textbooks, they just assign papers -- and being able to read papers and critique them is one of the only skills that matters in graduate school classes.
And thanks! I will pass along the congratulations!
