MIT is my perfect college. Everything about the school matches my personality perfectly; the quirkiness, the hacks, being pushed beyond your limits academically (I work well under stress/pressure), the course selection for my major (oceanography/marine bio), the location, just everything (okay, I am sure that there is something about the place that I wouldn’t like).

I am going to apply as a transfer student in a year or two, but I feel that my chance of going to MIT is just a pipe dream. Of course, I am going to apply to other schools, have a few in mind, but I just don’t think that it will be the same as MIT. Even though I am an old man (well, by some people’s standards), I still am a kid/geek/prankster at heart and going to school purely for the academics or sports would bore me.
