Re: College planning
If you're looking at MIT-level engineering schools I would definitely recommend that you take a look at Cornell Engineering. It's an amazing program and a really wonderful school. I chose it because, like FIRST, it's a very hands-on environment. The application process is relatively simple and straight-foreward: just type, submit, and wait. The school itself is beautiful, and there are literally thousands of interesting courses available to you including Food Science 101 (where you make your own ice cream flavor), Wines (I think you could guess), and a course I'm currently taking on the many engineering aspects of the CD/DVD player and IPod. I'd be happy to give you any more information you'd like to know. Feel free to PM me any time.
