What MIT’s view on self-studying and taking hard math classes early on isn’t very important. What is important is what your view is. If you are interested in a course, and you think that’s the best option, take it. If you are striving to make the USAMO, study hard. Do your best at what you want, but don’t play by MIT’s rules because MIT probably wants people who play by their own rules.
