Is it possible to get into MIT without having taken AP Chemistry or AP Physics?
It isn’t so much that I’m having trouble with any class over the other. It has a little bit to do with maintaining all of the classes at once because I have a fairly full senior schedule. However, maintaining A’s isn’t the part that worries me the most. I’ve seen people on this forum who are applying to MIT and have classes like college Number Theory and Differential Equations to put on applications. Plus, some people have done research with scientists or attended camps. I haven’t had the opportunity to do all of these things, partly because of a busy routine and partly because of colleges not allowing high school students to participate in the classes. And money fits in as well. I’ve been trying to get some opinions on MIT’s process of comparing different students because of their opportunities and regional demographics. The forums have been very helpful.
