They are not getting passed over. It’s basically a lottery. There are more than enough qualified applicants, so it’s in some ways a lottery among them. The stats will show there is more than statistical representation of Asian males.

What extra materials can she provide since she is deferred to boost any chances of getting in?

Any sports or music?

Does MIT look for ECA's such as sports or music?

yes - and MIT practices holistic admissions.

The history here - MIT had a ton of suicide issues. They don't like students that aren't well rounded. A bunch of my friends and I pulled our E3 admissions cards from MIT to see what they said. All of us were academically accomplished. What did the cards highlight?

I won local contests in a pagent and classic car show.
My one friend was a cheerleader and that was highlighted on her card
Another friend was a gymnast
Another was an accomplished musician

None of the cards mentioned our academics. Academics got us to the table.

You don't know sh*t about elite college admissions. They don't look for the so-called "well-rounded", but mediocre bigots like you. They favor people with "spikes", other things being equal. And no, there is ZERO chance MIT gonna highlight cheerleader for the admission decision because it's a dime a dozen.

I'm literally telling you what was on our admissions cards for MIT. We were all MIT undergraduates. I had 4 friends that were cheerleaders from various states - CA, TX, PA, GA and all had perfect grades, high SAT scores, etc.

This is definitely a troll

Lolz

A cheerleader with a perfect GPA and SAT taking all APs is not “a dime a dozen” and this is why people like that get into top schools
