My first regular-action college decision was an acceptance to MIT. I honestly did not believe that I had a snowball’s chance in hell of being accepted to MIT and was applying on a whim - I liked science and research, it had been recommended that I apply to 10 schools and I only had 9, I wanted a school with a big name in the science world (at the time I wanted to go to med school and thought it would help me get in). So I figured I might as well give it a shot.

I have rarely been as surprised in my life. :)
