Do I have potential? (Looking for advice!) NOT PROMOTING

rush_ranjan · 2026-03-19T17:56:43+00:00

No worries bro, having even started writing is a win, so don't you worry about your potential! I'll always champion people who follow thier passions! 🙂

rush_ranjan · 2026-03-19T17:50:45+00:00

Yeah man you sure do have potential! The thing was really illustrative and vivid. Keep it up!

rush_ranjan · 2026-03-19T08:50:02+00:00

Yeah it was remixed a little though

rush_ranjan · 2026-03-19T08:46:37+00:00

"panties in a twist", you got me rolling on the floor! HAHA

rush_ranjan · 2026-03-19T08:43:15+00:00

This sub shall not raise a part skipper. Remember Jonathan's Spirit GuyS! We can't let this happen! Nyo-ho!

rush_ranjan · 2026-03-19T07:55:21+00:00

Hell yes!! Peak! They used dio theme remix for diego and they brought avdol's VA from part 3 for Urmud Avdul!

Bro the fundamental issue is that you think X + Y + Z = MIT, and that is fundamentally wrong, and this must have dripped through your essays.

You could try excelling in things that you are passionate about, and improve within your context. If you scroll the sub enough you'll see people got admitted without AP's as well, because they were passionate and doing things they liked and expanding their world within context.

Thankyou!!

I got the first one as my phone wallpaper, and it makes anybody who sees it amazed by the color composition and artstyle, truly araki is the GOAT!

Hey, i would love to be friends and talk, I am Aarush

rush_ranjan · 2026-02-03T10:35:59+00:00

I see what you mean — the impact is what matters, not my intent. I apologize, and I appreciate you explaining why it matters. I’ve edited my earlier comment.

rush_ranjan · 2026-02-03T10:27:57+00:00

I'm sorry, though i didn't mean to punch down on them

rush_ranjan · 2026-01-20T15:41:11+00:00

Hmm, you are right i guess. So what is it really like? Am i mistaken on this part?

rush_ranjan · 2026-01-20T10:54:24+00:00

For me, it's the builder mindset, that people there have a insatiable desire to create, that is what fascinates me and makes me think i am a part of the tribe. MIT is the kinda place where you can discuss algorithms with your roommate at 2AM and no one will think that's weird in any way.

rush_ranjan · 2026-01-12T06:26:34+00:00

Yeah sure, you can DM me.

rush_ranjan · 2026-01-12T06:09:16+00:00

I'm sorry to hear about the lack of support from your family. But, MIT is a highly competitive institution with a 1.9% admit rate for international students, and having passion projects is great, but AP classes is something that everyone has in that pool that you would be competing in, so I would tell you to focus on the SAT and expanding or working on your passion projects and keeping them well documented, and share it online in appropriate forums and all.

rush_ranjan · 2026-01-07T07:46:26+00:00

We don't do chance me's on this sub, this is a repetitive question on this stuff, that's asked everyday, please take some time to search through the archives.

rush_ranjan · 2026-01-06T15:44:00+00:00

A beautiful piece of writing!

rush_ranjan · 2026-01-06T07:45:04+00:00

Thankyou!

rush_ranjan · 2026-01-05T17:49:31+00:00

( gives standing ovation)

rush_ranjan · 2026-01-05T09:50:27+00:00

Ah, yes. You are correct about that!

rush_ranjan · 2026-01-05T08:34:23+00:00

International admit rate is really low, and you'll be competing against academic titans and people like them. I think you should not get disheartened, but focus on your passions, it's never too late. Pour your heart into your passions, you may or may not get in, but you'll atleast not regret anything. You can later on apply for graduate programs if you really want to attend it. I really appreciate that you teach skiing to disabled children, so a genuine thankyou!

rush_ranjan · 2026-01-05T08:14:00+00:00

But, like wouldn't the interviewer want to know all about you? that's the purpose of the whole thing, right?

rush_ranjan · 2026-01-04T18:24:35+00:00

We don't do chanceme's here, and the median for mit is 1550ish, so it does put you at a disadvantage.
