And I'm predicted AAB

your a genius. you should get in just make sure you have like some good extra curriculur stuff because MIT really scrutinizes that. I take part in international public speaking stuff so i thought it would be a worth a try if that comes as a bonus. Well i got AAAB and predicted A*AAa. (Im doing AS further maths)

not smart, just lucky, the maths and critical reading bits were easy, i dropped a load on the essay though :s-smilie:
i'm doing a load of extra curricular, like music and badminton but i dont really have much more than that

Anyone else doing something other than mechnical??
