MIT information (Extra) OK, here's what to do to get yourself the best odds of MIT acceptance. 1) keep that GPA and, in your junior year, take the college entrance exam and hammer it. 2) pick one extracurricular to focus on. Do a range of others for breadth, but admissions officers today are looking for one extracurric that you pursued throughout high school and rose to a position of leadership in. So pick the club where you can be an officer, or the sport where you can be team captain. 3) do community service, particular if it's something relevant to your prospective major. 4) you'll have to write an admissions essay. 5) through volunteerism or job-shadowing or other programs, try to meet people who are in your prospective career.
