Literally nothing will guarantee you admission at MIT. So don’t focus on clearing a bar that doesn’t exist. Just do your best and apply.



I think part of the intent of this thread is what “do your best” means. I would like to think that while there is no 100% certain formula, that signs of someone exceptionally committed to math/sci education and/or the school’s values could be somewhat clearly described. Even if not all these people would gain admission, they may spend their time thinking about valuable pursuits.
