And also, several questions that I hope you wouldn't mind answering:
1. I'm a High School freshman at State College Area High School in State College, PA, and transferred to this school district after a year in Whitney Young Magnet High School's Academic Center program for 7th and 8th graders in Chicago, IL. I was wondering how many students get admitted to MIT from State High, how many from Whitney, and how many from Whitney that were in the Academic Center.
2. Also, I understand that you consider the application in context, but was wondering how great an influence is the High School that one attended.
3. Lastly, I most likely won't be applying for college until Senior year, and so was wondering how much your expectations from an applicant change over the years.
Thanks for your time,
