Two questions, if someone would be kind and answer them.


Im a korean female (international) who needs some kind of financial aid.
since MIT is need-blind to internationals whereas Stanford isn’t, do you guys think ill have a better chance at MIT?
I am somewhat mathematically inclined, but not too good at it. I took AMC/AIME this year and didn’t qualify for the USAMO but my teacher told me that i would have if i had gotten one more question right on the AIME. Do you think I still should mention my score on my college application? (MIT and other top schools including Stanford) Im wondering if its too low a score for a MIT applicant;
