Hey, Mikayle… Normally I stay out of these conversations, but as an MIT alum and a current MIT parent (with another child likely to apply this year), I think your sarcastic phrase “darling child” was uncalled for! Most posts on behalf of MIT are a little classier than that. Please represent us better than that… you usually do!

FYI, although MIT does not consider “legacy” in admission, there are lots of legacy kids that DO get into MIT on their own merit. No need to demean them with sarcasm!
