I am currently a junior. I am a student from Mexico and I lived one year in Chicago. I attended a great school and took some challenging classes and some easy classes- given that I was an international student. My freshman year I got excellent grades in Mexico, my sophomore year (in chicago) I got a 4.0 UW GPA and a 4.13 W GPA. I took challenging science classes. I came back to Mexico this year and I will take the SAT, some AP tests, some SAT Subject Tests, and the Toefl. I have taken some SAT practice tests and my average is around ~1430. I am self-studying for AP bio, AP macro, and AP psych; I am confident that I will do good on these. I will also take the SAT Biology subject test, SAT Math 1, and SAT Math 2. (I’ll take both math so I can send the best score of both). And the TOEFL will be OK. I have lived an incredible life all around Mexico and some time in the US. I have been through a lot of stuff; from shootings to my parents’ divorce (which almost ended my inspiration of getting into MIT). Instead of looking at all the bad things that have happened in mi life and giving up my dreams because of that, I decided that it was a challenge for me to get into MIT. I am pretty sure that I’ll make good killer essays.
Now, tell me your opinion. Do you think that I can get into MIT? I will apply early action. Leave your comments, suggestions, and questions. Thanks yor your time.
