chances of me getting into MIT?
GPA = 2.2
Rigorous Classes: 5 AP classes (but I failed 3 AP exams).
————->AP scores: 1,1,1,3,5. (5 was AP calc BC, 3 was AP Physics C)
Extra Curics: Playing lots of computer games and selling stuff on ebay….. -_-;
My dad is an MIT graduate but I obviously don’t think that will help me in my admissions. Some people do say legacy helps, but my above scores may just be crap…
What are my chances? Should I even waste $$ applying?
*Please, serious answers only…*

Additionally, MIT is a meritocracy–no one gets in based on legacy status.
I’ll be perfectly blunt with you – your extra curriculars are horrible. I seriously hope you’ve done more than just that. LIke one of the above posters said, you won’t have much of a chance getting into any decent school. Start expanding your interests, maybe do some volunteer work, show that you know how to manage your time.
