@Schweiz12, but don’t take it as, “All you take are math and science courses.” That’s not true. Here’s a basic run-down of MIT’s “General Institute Requirements” (GIRs):

*two semesters of calculus (18.01, 18.02, etc.)
*two semesters of physics (8.01, 8.02, etc.)
*one semester of chemistry (5.111, 5.112 or 3.091)
*one semester of biology (7.012 or 7.013)
*eight semesters of humanities (HASS) courses
*four quarters worth of PE, swim test

Overall, it’s still a fairly “well-rounded” education. Of course, you can obtain credit for many of these courses via AP credit or passing an Advanced Standing Exam. It’s your decision, though. You still have two years to think about it!
