MIT is arguably the best university in the world, but with an acceptance rate of 4.5%, students must demonstrate excellence in all aspects of their education, not just school and college level academics, but good grades in standardized test scores such as SAT or ACT, language tests and more.
Also an active participation in academic and non-academic events like hackathons, community meet ups, events that highlight your leadership skills and ability to work in large groups can greatly improve your MIT application and give you the best possible chance of admission.
