[]Why you think you were accepted/deferred/rejected: I think I had a lot of interesting things to say and I discussed my varied interests like techno and anime.
[*]Advice? Commiserations? Feel like bragging?: I am extremely happy that I got in! My family cried when I told them I got accepted. I would say that you should just be yourself and look for a way to make yourself look unique. Is there something interesting about you that you feel others should know? Also, if you’re not 100% math/science person, it’s okay. MIT is perfect to help you find what your interests are and has great programs for whatever path you decide to take. I’m so happy!!! :D[/ul]
