Re: I'm an MIT Admissions Officer & longtime FIRST person, AMA.

Hi Chris! A few questions...
How much does it benefit students to have an activity like FRC on their college app, as opposed to something less intense?
What's the best way to show the impact of my FIRST experience on an application to colleges that may not be as familiar with FIRST as MIT is?
I'm not sure if you're allowed to disclose this, but I'll ask anyway - what percentage of recent MIT freshman classes has had FIRST on their resumé?

Thanks!
