Essay Topics

Common App Essay

Would say my essays were unique and well-written for Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Gave them what they were looking for - 8/10.

Interview Experiences
  • Massachusetts Institute of Technology
  • Performance/Outcome: Interview was 20 minutes, very brief, very little small talk but felt well prepared.
Letters of Recommendation
  • Teacher

    2 teachers who knew me fairly well, letters were probably polite but not extremely enthused.
