MIT (2025-2026)

[fossil stone]

thank you, sir petey

xd

[proud dome]

Hi guys I accidentally ED’d here

So now we’re in the same boat

[viscid raven]

Excited for irl friends who applied here and Notre Dame

[fossil stone]

accidentally…? And there’s no ED

[proud dome]

EA

I meant to apply for RD

[fossil stone]

Oh lol

I mean

[proud dome]

Idk why I keep saying ED for everything my friends have been saying ED ED

[viscid raven]

Did you REA somewhere else

[fossil stone]

Sooner the results at least

[proud dome]

Like everyone with duke and shit

[proud dome]

Nope

[fossil stone]

why’d you want RD over EA tho? Just curious

[proud dome]

Just wanted to send in my mid year report

[viscid raven]

I applied EA to 6 schools

[viscid raven]

Ah

Was it to improve your grades?

[proud dome]

Yah

[viscid raven]

Ah

W

[fossil stone]

Does MIT ask for mid year if accepted EA?

[keen summit]

yes, required

[verbal obsidian]

WE yes WE are ALL getting into MIT

[marble berry]

hi petey how was reading apps

[keen summit]

i didn't read many this year, too busy on other things. but fine i think

[supple niche]

I want this so badly omg 🥹

Please MIT, I need you in my life lol 🙏🥹

[verbal obsidian]

1 am

💔

[keen summit]

no. i look at them and i simply Know

it comes with five placements in scorpio

[gentle comet]

Oh shoot how long have you been back haha

[keen summit]

idk like an hour

[gentle comet]

Back from your honeymoon and such or something else?

[keen summit]

oh no wait what do you mean

i thought you meant in this discord

like i haven't checked this since pi day probably and am back here for decisions release

[gentle comet]

Oh I meant back in the office lmao

[keen summit]

i did take a bit of time off around my wedding in october but have been working since; but i am headed out on vacation with my beautiful wife tomorrow

[gentle comet]

Thats so cute :) where are you guys headed to?

Also I really wanted to show up to the fire spinning thing but I think I was already busy that say

[keen summit]

respectfully i won't say because last year i already got approached by one applicant while on vacation at the same time

[gentle comet]

Oh ☠️

[keen summit]

yeah man there's a lot going on! that's fine! i've been super busy but hope to see you around a firejam or smthing in the spring

[fossil stone]

that’s crazy 😭

[gentle comet]

Yeah :) Im excited for cpw and to see part of next years cohort today; its crazy being on the flip side of being a student now watching admissions go on again

[fossil stone]

XD

[alpine nymph]

Yall im currently taking my AP lunch exam

Lowkey failing cause all I packed was a salad

[fossil stone]

Pack some fruit idk

AP lunch is just completion grade tbh

[marble thorn]

LOL

[long void]

hello petey

i think he left 😔

[keen summit]

am busy!

stuff

[fossil stone]

Wowza

[lament kestrel]

hmm

good luck everyone

[long void]

petey is so locked in

[fossil stone]

You too! 🙏

[long void]

5 more hrs

[lament kestrel]

I'm already in college :(

But still, thanks

[fossil stone]

Good luck on exams then 🫡

[lament kestrel]

😭 thanks

[proud dome]

Starting to remember why I EA’d

Holy frick I love this school

[tame coral]

your college as in MIT admissions

[barren oasis]

Good luck for MIT!

[river verge]

less than 4

[normal bolt]

im so nervous bruh

[verbal obsidian]

guys what should i do if i get in

i might do drugs

bet

bet

ill send proof

bet i GOTCHU

[normal bolt]

yeah

i ED'd northwestern but also applied here

well i'd go to northwestern over mit

which is why i was comfortable EDing

[dry star]

damn you got 2 decisions in 1 day

northwestern is goated

[proud dome]

I just got waitlisted from one of my other top schools

[normal bolt]

yeah i'm about to die from anxiety

[dry star]

Good luck

[normal bolt]

closer to home, i like the environment more/the northwestern students ive interacted with seem awesome, the major (industrial engineering & management science) seems to more closely fit what i want to do compared to what i applied to mit for, presumably a lower cost based on net price calculator

[proud dome]

Emerson!

[dry star]

Also keep in mind, colleges are like relationships, the girl of your dreams isn't always your soulmate

[normal bolt]

also from what ive heard mit has a pretty competitive student population while northwestern is a little more chill

[storm onyx]

Yo did Petey come back to life

3 hrs ish 😭

[verbal obsidian]

i visited it it’s soooo beautiful

[normal bolt]

it is!!

[verbal obsidian]

https://tenor.com/view/travis-scott-thatboiicheck-gunna-young-thug-hot-gif-15959855

no gif perms 🙁

[verbal obsidian]

yeah i was there last summer and it’s sooo lovely right next to the water

def can understand choosing it over mit

[gentle comet]

Mit is a very cooperative population, almost the entire point of a lot of PSETs is working together with other people to solve issues together

[normal bolt]

ooh that sounds really nice

[gentle comet]

But also mit is also right next to the water :-)

[normal bolt]

well if i get rejected from nu but somehow get into mit i will def think about going there

[gentle comet]

Here are some photos I took on campus

[gentle comet]

Definitely do more than think about it, MIT has among the best financial aid in the nation (world?) as well

[normal bolt]

wow...

[gentle comet]

If your family makes less than 200k yearly, you go tuition free
Less than 100k you go completely free

[normal bolt]

you're an mit student right

[gentle comet]

Yes :3

[normal bolt]

if i somehow don't get into northwestern but into mit would you be okay with me dm'ing you about questions

[gentle comet]

Pls if anyone gets into mit please please please bombard my dms lmao

I would love to

[gentle comet]

I mean I cant really say, Im not an admissions officer; you do need to be a good student and a good person though :) 👍

[thorny sierra]

Here we go

[fossil stone]

3hr 4m 😬

[long void]

Can i bomb your dm

[gentle comet]

Oh yeah ur questbridge right

[long void]

yea

[gentle comet]

Go for it twin

[long void]

I have some questions 😔

[gentle comet]

I have a good amount of answers

yes :3

nukes

yes!

[karmic wadi]

so exciting

[verbal obsidian]

then expect some dm’s in a few hours because ME and EVERYONE else in the thread will indeed get into MIT 🥹

[normal bolt]

WE yes WE (ALL of US) are getting accepted into mit on full rides

[karmic wadi]

oh wait does nu also come out today

[verbal obsidian]

🔥🔥🔥

[normal bolt]

yeah i have the two biggest decisions of my life within like 2 hours of each other 🥹

im lowkey just hyperventilating in my room LMAO

[karmic wadi]

good luck !!!!

[manic stump]

Good luck

[serene crescent]

i'm gonna bombard ur dms

[tardy acorn]

m i of t

[gentle comet]

emi!!! hi :)

are you also stalking the next class

[serene crescent]

i can't speak for what NU is like but mit feels a lot less competitive than schools like berkeley and harvard. it's rlly quite chill

[serene crescent]

hiiii

[serene crescent]

i check this chat for sillies occasionally

i'm curious to see who gets in

also i'm cooked in 5.112 and i am procastinating my Doom

[gentle comet]

😭 3.091 gonna whoop my ass tmrw

[serene crescent]

i need a 66 for a 70...

[normal bolt]

ooh okok that's really nice

[serene crescent]

the average student needs a 70 for a 70...

[serene crescent]

officially at least, no mit class is graded on a curve which definitely helps

[normal bolt]

why does mit name their classes like that 😭

[serene crescent]

nerd school is obsessed with acronyms and numbers

[normal bolt]

fair enough

[dry star]

Cant wait to study course 6-7

[gentle comet]

💀 im sorry

[fossil stone]

Yep

[serene crescent]

i wonder if u have more or less than me

[serene crescent]

hopefully passing will be 50-60

worst case i need a 66 on this exam to pass

[gentle comet]

i mean i think we've definitely got the same amonut of answers but to different questions

[serene crescent]

depending on passing grades

[gentle comet]

do you want me to forward any questions i cant answer to you lmao

[serene crescent]

real tbh

[serene crescent]

sure why not

[gentle comet]

also do yk if theres a mit '30 discord yet

i wanna be a boomer 🙏

i think my evil spreadsheets would be useful

or should i highkey just make it myself

[serene crescent]

no idea

i don't think there were any gap year students who were planning on making it but idk

so it'll probably just be whoever's quickest to it after ea

[gentle comet]

what if I do it fr

like rn

[serene crescent]

i pretty strongly believe that it should be owned by someone from the class year but you could jump start it

[alpine nymph]

Im cold cold today its like 40 so idk how im gonna survive at mit

[gentle comet]

yeah id transfer ownership fs

[serene crescent]

esp because i also believe that a good verification system is sorta crucial

[gentle comet]

i just want to be a boomer

[serene crescent]

given that the 2028 server owner initially got doxxed before they implemented a verification system

[fossil stone]

I’ll lyk when I’m rejected 😌

[gentle comet]

doxxed?

[serene crescent]

yar

[gentle comet]

how so

[serene crescent]

someone joined and dropped their address

😭

[gentle comet]

oh wtf 😭

[fossil stone]

Who even makes those

[gentle comet]

idk the mit 29 one is pretty damn full

i saw that lmao

delete that rn

[fossil stone]

Wouldn’t that just be the school’s address…

or were they living out of the dorms

[gentle comet]

against rules

all good

[ember lagoon]

why would u make it

[gentle comet]

either way you shouldnt drop a "mit class of 2030" server into a public server

you're gonna get 9 billion random kids and like 2 admits

[fossil stone]

Yeah lol

I’ll join it igu

[gentle comet]

idk i want one to exist

[ember lagoon]

on the contrary how else would u get people to join

[serene crescent]

like their home address

[gentle comet]

dming admits and then others will spread it

[serene crescent]

^^^

[ember lagoon]

probably slower than just making it "public"and having a verification system

[serene crescent]

the oly kids spread things like a wildfire

[gentle comet]

you'd have a verification system regardless

[serene crescent]

i mean tbf that person uses their full name online and it's pretty trivial to find their address from that if you know the strat but

still unnerving

[serene crescent]

yeah

[ember lagoon]

what if i withdraw my mit app at 6:27

will i still get my decision

[gentle comet]

im not actually sure

[fossil stone]

Why 5?

You mean 6?

[ember lagoon]

for science

[gentle comet]

not est for them

[ember lagoon]

oops

[dry star]

you should do it

[fossil stone]

lol

[ember lagoon]

ill test next year

[fossil stone]

Can you even withdraw at that point?

Do they have an option

[ember lagoon]

try it and find out

[fresh pulsar]

Good luck

[fossil stone]

I’m goodddd

[fossil stone]

thanks 🙏

[serene crescent]

damn 18:28 is so late

[gentle comet]

ik i hate waiting for ts and ive only been conscious of it for like 2 days

[ember lagoon]

brown pls gimme ed

[serene crescent]

lol how was it for ur decision

[normal bolt]

truth nuke

[normal bolt]

shouldve done 6:28 am

[gentle comet]

it was genuinely the longest i possibly could have waited

thast not what i mean

i submitted in like early september and i was apparently, of the class of 2029, the earliest person to submit an application who got in

i assume thats not counting questbridge but im not sure

and i got deferred and accepted RD 😭 i had the maximum waiting time possible

an admissions officer did yeah

[dry star]

i mean u didnt get waitlisted

[gentle comet]

i mean true theres probably one unlucky soul who got deferred to waitlist but i dont think we let anyone in off waitlist for 29

[serene crescent]

wtf why'd you submit so early

[dry star]

I think id prefer to get flat out rejected than waitlisted

[serene crescent]

i submitted a few hours before ra deadline and got in 3/14

[gentle comet]

mit my favorite :3

[ember lagoon]

did u get deferred qb

[gentle comet]

no i did not apply qb

[dry star]

I feel like I wasn't creative enough in a lot of my essays

[normal bolt]

i feel like if the wrong person reads my essays im an autoreject

im worried about coming across as an odd little nerd

[desert furnace]

thats not how the application process works according to the blogs

[serene crescent]

hmm if you don't pass first line i think you can somewhat get screwed over

[ember lagoon]

source: blogs /s

[normal bolt]

okay so im fried 🥲

[gentle comet]

i think the first line is academics though

[normal bolt]

northwestern take me please

[serene crescent]

yeah

[gentle comet]

like applying with a bunch of Fs will probably get you rejected

[alpine nymph]

Is MIT the one where they have like small 2-3 person groups read your app?

Or is that caltech idk

[desert furnace]

thats what i thought too, so as long as academics are strong enough you should pass first line, in which the first line wouldn't have been dependent on essays :3 but like again im largely ignorant so i might be wrong

[alpine nymph]

What do yall think is the cutoff for prestigious schools to put you in a "likely reject" stack

Multiple B's?

Maybe Cs?

[harsh meadow]

and Cs. I think they can forgive a B, not a boquet of them

[alpine nymph]

Mhmm

Maybe amazing ECs

Cancel out a couple

1-2 Cs if you can justify it maybe

[verbal obsidian]

i have a genuine question. if they offer you an interview after you apply does that infer that you’ve met the baseline academic benchmark? because why would they waste time interviewing you if they didn’t think your academics were good enough? you have to have at least cleared that right? genuine question.

[harsh meadow]

uh no

[harsh meadow]

maybe if you're applying to a navy school or something

[verbal obsidian]

how about for mit? cuz icl my gpa is 3.92 and i thought i was cooked

oh so i’m cooked

[alpine nymph]

How does one get a B in PE

[dry star]

I didnt get an interview lol

[harsh meadow]

they TRY to

[alpine nymph]

Unless you live in a place with no alums

[verbal obsidian]

i js thought like why would they waste time on me if they didn’t think my academics were good enough

[alpine nymph]

Middle schools doesnt effect college apps

[verbal obsidian]

B’s

and it was more than 2 😭

[alpine nymph]

True very true

Idk i feel like

Thats pretty

[verbal obsidian]

i think it was 3 or 4 idk

[alpine nymph]

Hard

[verbal obsidian]

ye i’m cooked

[serene crescent]

that's not cooked 😭 i know ppl with lower who got in

[verbal obsidian]

AP chem AP csa and PRECALCULUS BRO

[verbal obsidian]

fr? wait i’m chillin

no literally and my teacher was the devil incarnate

[harsh meadow]

Yeah like, in my country we have 2 alums (both went to my HS), but idk if they'll volunteer to be interviewers

[gentle comet]

interviews are done regardless of your application

[verbal obsidian]

i have pretty decent ones some are high impact

[verbal obsidian]

ohhhhhh

[gentle comet]

they attempt to give every single person an interview; if you dont get one, it's because an interviewer was not available

[verbal obsidian]

so fair

[verbal obsidian]

huh interesting. that’s cool

[gentle comet]

i had a B in 'career exploration' and a dual enrollment US history class

i got accepted and then I got a C in calculus one

those b's will not really affect you

[verbal obsidian]

wait are we twins i’m bouta get a C in calc too

[gentle comet]

maybe wait until after you get in until you start slipping

[serene crescent]

skele are u in 18.01

[gentle comet]

because you do have to fill out the FUN form (february update and something form)

yes

[serene crescent]

i was told that 18.01 had a power series question even tho power series were taught in the last 2 lectures

[verbal obsidian]

i better get in 😔

[alpine nymph]

Its over... 💔

[gentle comet]

yes it did.. i left the entire question blank and didnt even read onto the second half

[alpine nymph]

The M in mit stands for music

[gentle comet]

massivetwoshits institute of taxidermy

[alpine nymph]

Toston

Its like Bostons other name i think

[gentle comet]

beantown :-)

[verbal obsidian]

dream school 🥹

[gentle comet]

i will say its still extremely surreal to me to be chilling in my dorm and then i think "wtf there are thousands of people who tried to get here"

[serene crescent]

now i want beantown 😭

[gentle comet]

i heard it was closing soon

[serene crescent]

WHAT?

[gentle comet]

do yk if thats true

idk it was an offhand mention idk if its true or not

[dry star]

one thing I hate about being on a nontraditional path is I can't compare my grades to see if I'm actually competitive or not

[serene crescent]

a google search says it closes for renovations over the summer

[gentle comet]

ohh okay

[serene crescent]

hopefully it's just that

it's so conveniently located for me

[gentle comet]

cambridge pizza 🤤

have you ever had their pasta vro

[serene crescent]

i like beantown better icl

[median sluice]

Depends on your school average gpa and what most people end up with

[serene crescent]

yeah

[gentle comet]

mmmhhh

[median sluice]

3.8 at some look better than a 3.95 at others

[serene crescent]

it's nice that mentally ill queer dorm has food so close by

[ember lagoon]

how

is fhat even possible

[gentle comet]

slightly jealous

[long coral]

whos excited 🙂

[gentle comet]

but we have chipotle so

[normal bolt]

im so nervous

[fresh herald]

whos ready 💀

[dry star]

im just kinda hoping for a defferal

[verbal obsidian]

the average gpa for my senior class is like 3.4

[long coral]

is deferral competitive or nah at mit

[ember lagoon]

fair enough

[normal bolt]

im just switching back and forth between the mit and northwestern channels and stress eating tangerines

[fresh herald]

nah

[gentle comet]

its like 60% get deferred

you are more likely to be deferred than to get rejected

[serene crescent]

true our chipotle is like 8m away

[gentle comet]

i have some friends that when i see them they're literally always with chipotle

it wont trust

[median sluice]

Also depends on the gpa of admitted students and the gpa of people that are competitive for t20

[serene crescent]

lol real

[fresh herald]

LMFAO

samee

[harsh meadow]

I don't think MIT cares if you can run and play dodgeball at an A or B level

[fresh herald]

I have 2 A- invirtual PE 💀 💀

[serene crescent]

what about mit world class athletics /j

[gentle comet]

What about mit division 1 bro

[fossil stone]

Most bottom is still cracked relative to us

[gentle comet]

i think you both are rather well known folks

[frozen crest]

i think i'm somewhat well known

wait you're def more well known that i am tho

[next urchin]

[serene crescent]

HIII

how's life

[karmic wadi]

ITS GOOD

we both have fat names now

gap years r so good

[serene crescent]

no

[serene crescent]

r u having fun

how are things going now

[karmic wadi]

much fun im toiling away at ros2 right now 💀

i need to learn rust

[karmic wadi]

we miss u

we got a giant flag for our office

u would fw it

[serene crescent]

omg !?

[serene crescent]

do you do systems programming

everyone says they need to learn rust but lowkey only like 1/10 people who say that do

cuz i feel like it's a really scary language until you're comfortable with it

[karmic wadi]

ILL SEND U A PIC

ITS SO GOOD

[karmic wadi]

never done too much w firmware before

[covert ridge]

clocks ticking

[karmic wadi]

apart from some basic raspi stuff

[covert ridge]

rahhhhh

[karmic wadi]

yeah this is true

but i think it would be a good learning experience 🔥

[covert ridge]

i just came out of my algorithms final im just praying 🥀

[karmic wadi]

at one point im gonna rewrite my entire SLAM code into c++ 😭

yeah its also good since we're working w embedded systems

[normal bolt]

hello?

[karmic wadi]

oakd just released this new standalone camera

its like 900 dollars though

but still pretty cool

[covert ridge]

bro it aint even active anymore

[serene crescent]

1210? ooh

[covert ridge]

booty bouncin boston baddie beavers

[covert ridge]

lowk

i think i got a 50-60%

which should be at the cutoof

[serene crescent]

praying for u

i shokdl take 6.1220 and trickle it down for 6.1210

and use 18.404 for 6.1220 req

[covert ridge]

fr fr

[karmic wadi]

really? i see rust for embedded systems quite a bit

im not really knowledgeable about rust though

enlighten me

[frozen crest]

thank goodness

[karmic wadi]

LOLLLL wait r u waiting for mit ea

[frozen crest]

yeah bruh WHAT are these numbers

[karmic wadi]

ohhhhhhh

okok dw about it :O

[next urchin]

how do u like poli sci at MIT? was thinking of majoring in that maybe

[karmic wadi]

i was just curious LOL

[frozen crest]

sorry

hmm

[serene crescent]

18.404: theory of computation
6.1220: design and analysis of algorithms
18.404 is like, a sophomore or junior class but it's easier than 18.701 lol

[frozen crest]

mit is like t10 polisci it's really good here
you'll def have close company (most pre-laws)

[frozen crest]

ik i was messin

i didn't know you could use 18.404 for 1220 prerq tho

[covert ridge]

do you know my goat Jerry in 404

[frozen crest]

def going to be very intersectional with science and tech

[covert ridge]

404 has a lot of weird n vs np shiz thats in 1220

[next urchin]

why did u choose polisci as 1 of ur concentrations?

[covert ridge]

why not

💀

[serene crescent]

i was talking with a friend about this recently

if you use rust for super low level, you'll be writing a ton of unsafe, and lowkey c and zig both provide better unsafe toolkits imo

but the ability to use the same language for unsafe and safe code is sort of a good enough feature that it's worth it to bear with the ugly parts of unsafe rust

[frozen crest]

ong

[covert ridge]

im thinking my hass concentration be in HAAD purely cuz i took ap art history and liked it

[next urchin]

so it js interested you

[covert ridge]

like

js for funsies

[storm onyx]

I see this argument but at the same time you can just use interop

[serene crescent]

wait lowkey 404 is just fun and chill. like we prove fun stuff like: 3sat is np complete, conp is a subset of IP, pspace = npspace, nl = conl

[frozen crest]

technically haven't chosen yet but i'm thinking i wanna go to law school and i'm planning on making it my humanities concentration or minor anyway so might as well go the full way

[serene crescent]

i've heard the model that you should think of safe rust and unsafe rust as two different languages with the same syntax, and it's kinda real and true

unsafe rust is like, fine, and you can wrap it in safe rust which is nice

[next urchin]

ah ok

[serene crescent]

ur acting like ur crush just texted u back /j

[covert ridge]

3sat 💔

[serene crescent]

3sat <3

[karmic wadi]

ooooohhh i see i see

[covert ridge]

popped up in my exam

💔

[storm onyx]

Waiting for MIT decision be like

[serene crescent]

oh??? why

3sat is like our best friend

it's so easy to do reductions to 3sat

[covert ridge]

ye

wait can i ask you

what's one example of a problem that is NP hard but not provably NP complete

[serene crescent]

3sat and graph 3colorinf are like the np complete problems

[night coral]

btw the portal astrology is real 👍

anyways cya

[serene crescent]

🤷‍♀️ tqbf technically fits

if that's what you're asking

[serene crescent]

MODSSSS...

[night coral]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

im just stating facts

[serene crescent]

math oly?

[night coral]

its real

[covert ridge]

what's tqbf

[serene crescent]

true quantified boolean formula

[covert ridge]

okay we didnt learn that

[serene crescent]

it's NP hard and PSPACE complete

[covert ridge]

yeah idk what pspace is

whats like

a more well known problem

[serene crescent]

polynomial space

[storm onyx]

Ok this might be the braindead answer but the halting problem 💀

[covert ridge]

no halting problem is undecided

it goes beyond the n vs np scope

[serene crescent]

i mean

it is NP hard tbh

[storm onyx]

It’s technically np hard

But it’s a pointless example

[serene crescent]

this is about as useful as saying that ATM is anything-hard

[covert ridge]

hmmm

yeah ig that quetions cooked

i know fs the other question's answer is halting problem

it is what it is

[serene crescent]

go, the game

[storm onyx]

lmao did ts get purged

[long void]

time to doom scroll tiktok for an hr

[storm onyx]

ok wait can we discuss theorhetical cs again

[rugged wyvern]

[river verge]

One hour three minutes ‼️

[karmic wadi]

[rugged wyvern]

[storm onyx]

bro ts is cooking me everyone at my school asked me about mit decision as I was leaving campus 😭

[strange rampart]

[verbal obsidian]

[strange rampart]

That takes the fun out of it

[civic crow]

be careful

[storm onyx]

ok so

how slow can time move

Cause i think my internal clock moving slower than possible 💀

[strange rampart]

Every 60 seconds in A2C a minute passes at MIT

[long void]

time moves faster when you’re doomscrolling on tiktok

[storm onyx]

i don't think thats the context....

[storm onyx]

Wait lowk i should just watch youtube

[long void]

yes

[deep yarrow]

yeah watch mit results videos

super healthy

[long void]

oh maybe not that

[dry star]

"I'm not late, yall are early"

[strange rampart]

It’s usually done by current trends iirc

They did Star Wars for a while on the older ones

[storm onyx]

The latest one is fire

sad they only do it for pi day and not ea

[deep yarrow]

yeah this is not making me feel better about whats gonna happen

why do they have to be so good

[storm onyx]

i feel like its kind of antiproductive to watch mit stuff if mit is what is causing the nervousness

[strange rampart]

https://youtu.be/ckB02ExJeFI?si=VWxTctvsI2jhs7lF

[deep yarrow]

nah i just havent found the right mit content trust
