[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MIT, the fairest, middle classes friendly and true merit based school. Good luck to everyone.[/quote]

Mit athletes get no admissions boost whatsoever from
Coaches. Yeah, admissions gets a notice who the coach supports but 2/3 of those kids still won’t get in. The 1/3 that do are because they are qualified. No one unqualified is getting into MIT no matter what your athletic abilities are.[/quote]

It's not a huge boost, but it's a tip and with so many ultraqualified applicants, that tip can determine who gets in.[/quote]

No one gets in unless qualified. No one. Coaches know ther hands are tied and tell athletes that: no guarantees, no true prereads, no commitments, and if you want to get security, we understand but go elsewhere. They also tell students they will want a 1580 sat with a minimum 790 in math. [/quote]

100% incorrect. My kid is a recruited athlete at MIT, why do you keep posting stuff that you have no clue about?[/quote]

Recruited? Or
Admitted? This info is directly from a long time coach there who recruited my kid (kid stopped interacting after understanding there was no guarantee). Teammate committed to swim at JHU when the same thing was told to her. Bird in the hand. So this came from swim
Coaches at mit. Who told you differently -
Identify the MIT coaches. [/quote]
Ah, I see. You believe that anything short of a 100% guarantee is “no boost.” The rest of us, however, can see that even a 1-in-5 chance of admission is a substantial “boost” over a 1-in-50 chance of admission. [/quote]
