MIT is a dream for all of us <3
Guest internationals don’t count. It won’t lower/higher chances. You’re neutral like the rest of us.
I’m hoping to make it to the swimming recruits (I have 16 national medals with 2 India records). Otherwise, with olympiad ranks like 33-45 I don’t know if I can make it. Although, I have done extensive research at prestigious colleges, given loads of APs, and done extensive iOS application development (competitive enough for MIT) the Olympiad trend in the past years is not so good. Hopefully it’ll be little different this year.

Although what I have gathered is that Olympiads are just a plus in their application. Their application is amazing anyway.
