MIT seems to be a long shot for everybody, worsening stats only mean longer shots. Did you read the pinned MIT chancing topic?

Uhh... I hope you don't seriously expect to be a US IPhO medalist. Many ridiculously smart friends I have didn't make it. Make realistic goals 1st.

Look at the 2012 and 2013 results threads, which are stickied at the top of this forum, to see what sorts of applicants have been admitted to MIT in the past two years. Vanishingly few of them have perfect stats or national-level ECs.
