Complimentary Response

I haven't seen this posted anywhere else, but the college acceptance thread reminded me. One of the graduating seniors of FRC25 created this clever video in response to MITs reply to his application.

Thought I'd share it with the rest of the CD community, enjoy! And good luck to him!

Re: Complimentary Response

Certainly an A+ for creativity. But I dunno, maybe I wanted to see some better reasons to admit him? I suppose the application (which only he and MIT have seen, I suppose) has all the info needed.

Re: Complimentary Response

I'm a current MIT student, and that video has gone viral in the MIT community! I'm even more excited about it now that I know that someone from the FRC community made it.

I hope it works out for him... though there have currently been about 200 more acceptances than anticipated, which means they're unlikely to admit many students off the waitlist.

Going to the youtube link in the first post, there's an update in the doobly-doo/video-details. Looks like he got in!

Re: Complimentary Response

Does this remind anyone else of the video that Elle Woods made for Harvard Law School in Legally Blonde?

It was fun, and I'm glad he was admitted. It needed more math, though.
