<p>Thanks to all for the information!</p>
<p>I have a plan assembled; I’ll take classes at a community college this fall, while pursuing some online courses (EPGY, possibly) to work on during the summer. I have no reason not to do this. :)</p>
<p>Might I add that it’s terrific to see MIT admissions officers on the forum answering questions. You guys do a great job connecting with prospective students.</p>
