My brilliant daughter just found out this morning that she got accepted into MIT. It was her top choice, and she is so excited. I''m just thrilled for her and can hardly believe it, as this year they had more applicants than ever before, so the acceptance rate was the lowest it had ever been.
She has wanted this so badly, and worked so hard for it. This is the kid that has a 4.32 GPA (because of all the AP classes she has taken), got a perfect 800 on the Math portion of her SAT (and a not too shabby 730 on the verbal portion), taught herself the second year of Calculus because they didn''t have enough kids to take the class at school, tutors other students, volunteers at the local hospital. She basically works from the time she gets home from school until 10 or 11pm every night to get all her school work done. Then she spends most of the weekends doing more work. She is the most motivated, hardworking and driven student I have ever seen. And she SOOOO deserves this!
I''m just so proud of her I had to share!
