<p>Guys guys guys!!</p>
<p>For those of you who were deferred, you shouldn’t feel bad at all. MIT has already decided that you’re a competitive applicant.</p>
<p>And TBOL3, that is not what I meant. They are not admissions requirements (which don’t really exist btw. - you don’t even need to be a senior in HS to be admitted, not do you even need to graduate), they are factors that could work to your advantage.</p>
<p>And wildchartermage, you’re exactly right. There’s a LOT more than what I listed there. (which is why there’s a little ‘reply’ box down there so you can add your input)</p>
<p>Anyway, scratch the point about having everyone read your essays. That’s not always a good idea. Good point.</p>
