<p>Graduate admissions are a lot less subjective than undergraduate admissions. Mainly because you know what you’re going there for and they know what you’re going there for. So they try to focus more on how good you are at that one thing be it math, management, biology, etc. Things like being president of your fraternity won’t be of too much help since it doesn’t necessarily translate to being able to do good research in your field.</p>
<p>I can’t freakin wait for grad school admissions season.</p>
<p>■■■■■ Gordon Freeman <3 and Tony Stark from Iron Man went to MIT. SO did NCIS’s Agent Gibbs. </p>
<p>And Obama…ehhh. He went to Harvard. (eww) So did Tom Morello, Matt Damon, T.S. Elliot, AL Gore, Edward Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, John F. Kennedy, and moar sketchy ppl.</p>
<p>Harvard is known for its snobby bloodthirsty and moneywasting sharks(lawyers), literature intellectuals, and hollywood(or decade-equivalent) liberals. </p>
<p>MIT is known for its quirky Engineers (<3)</p>
<p>The real question is: Who else is known for its quirky engineers?</p>
<p>In my experience, Cornell University, Carnegie-Mellon, and CalTec have an engineering community and focus on par with MIT’s. I’ll let you know about the Georgia Institute of Technology when I go to their weekend program xp. </p>
<p>BUT THERE HAS TO BE MOAR! D: </p>
<p>Anyone know other universities that feel like MIT?</p>
