Hmmm, you know there is a lot of time inbetween now and January first. I think I will go for it. I wasn’t a fan of chem class, but I loved biology and ADORED Physics C; and at a young age I had a strong inclination towards all things math. I think the public education system made me favor math and science less, but MIT could help me regain that passion. The “minimum” math and science requirements don’t sound daunting to me, but actually pretty reasonable. If I catch on to one of the hard sciences, or math, MIT will be probably the best place in the world to be. Otherwise, I will have a solid background as a math/physics minor, and can do poli-sci/econ/neuroscience. Sounds like a pretty solid plan to me. Then again, I shouldn’t get too far ahead of myself. I have a 12% chance to get in :p
