While MIT is a dream for many, international olympiad is not the end all be all. The US is not composed of only MIT, as Britain is not just compiled of Cambridge.

This is what anialways said in the first reply to the OP’s question.



Trix19:

You could do a project, present it, and carry it to an international platform.

We would be pleased to know about all such opportunities. How many? One? Two?



Trix19:

If you have an international recognition and more “wow” stuff attached to it, you will be good.

This is great!! You have opened our eyes very wide!



Trix19:

To put all your eggs in one basket by saying that once you get into intl olympiad you will get into MIT or elsewhere is nonsense.

Nobody here said that an int’l Olympiad medal can get you into MIT. All we say is that those who get into MIT from India are mostly int’l Olympiad medalists.



Trix19:

This is a melodramatic thread…I wish people really knew what they were saying on most occassions.

And you said this!! Funny!! Too funny!
