@didierdrogba Nice username btw. As for essay 3, it is quite tricky. I am pretty sure Argentinian is a nationality, not an ethnicity nor a race? For example, my nationality is American, but my race would be considered mestizo, because my direct ancestors are from Mexico and the ones waay down the line go back to Native American tribes. So for me, the question would be asking how has being Mestizo affected your academic development. If that makes sense…
Hey guys. Do you know if we can superscore for our SATs and whether we can use score choice? Thanks!
Do we have to mail an official transcript or it has to be uploaded by GC?
Hey everyone!! I’m a 2014 MITES Alumn and this is coming straight from MIT’s OEOP:
Make sure to check out the Webinar happening this weekend for the programs! It’ll give you a chance to talk to the people running the programs, and people from all three of the programs so you can better understand the differences between MITES/E2@MIT/MOSTEC.
Link is here: The Page Cannot be found
It’s Saturday at 4:00 p.m. EST!!

Should we mention our career interests outside of STEM in our app?
Yh i would mention career goals in general. Also how many essays have you all completed? I have three of 6 done. :-SS :-SS :-SS
I did all six, have to rewrite 1 & edit them all @PoisonIvy20
Has anybody NOT asked their teachers for recommendations yet?
I asked them but only one has competed it yet @Iamquiteloud
Just submitted my app all that’s left is to get my teachers to put in their letters of rec 
Good luck to everyone applying!
Would anyone like to share those tips/interesting information they learned from the webinar?
If I’m a white male, do I have a chance at all? I go to a ~10% white public school, but I wouldn’t say that I’m very disadvantaged.
I’m struggling with the 3rd essay…I am 3/4 AA & 1/4 NA and I grew up in a pretty rough neighborhood but I really wouldn’t say either of those factors affected my academic development. Help is appreciated!
i just found out about this program and made an account today TT.TT looks like i’m screwed…
