The session was VERY good. We were taken across campus into a lecture hall where a senior undergraduate student talked to us in an informal manor, but it was still incredibly informative. [View Full Report]

Good session by current admissions officer, a USC grad, very personable, effective, but not overly memorable. Got the job done though. [View Full Report]

By an asst. admissions director in large auditorium. Also a student who answered questions. No visuals. Be sure to check in Building 7 lobby to confirm loaction. Ours was moved due to a large turnout. [View Full Report]

Very casual and not awkward. Not much really new information, but it was nice to learn a bit of history of MIT. [View Full Report]

Fast paced, informative, a little dry. No powerpoints or video clips, just an admissions staff member sitting in a classroom with a group of visitors. [View Full Report]

We arrived about halfway through the session and decided to have coffee and snacks at the coffee bar located in their admissions office instead as we hadn't had lunch. An excellent decision. [View Full Report]

Very well done. Admissions office speaker was a recent MIT graduate with a degree in Biology and a minor in Spanish. Gave a great presentation. [View Full Report]

This was not helpful. Admissions officer on her last day was boring. 40 junior high students took up a bunch of seats leaving middle aged parents of high school seniors sitting on the floor. [View Full Report]

It was the girl's first time giving the Info Session and it was obvious she was very nervous. She gave it in a rather scrambled order and just wasn't very good, but as I said, it was her fi [View Full Report]

The information was very good. We got a good amount of information, and it was personally given as a speech from someone at the admission office. [View Full Report]

The session was very informative, they told me information specific to MIT alongside some other board and helpful information that would help in other admissions. [View Full Report]

The admissions staff was very helpful. A very typical information session though...nothing extremely special. [View Full Report]
