他没有任何的补习，他拿到了多项奥林匹克奖。他性格内向，他得到了多个学校俱乐部的领导位置。他讲话从不会迎合任何人，他得到了校长和老师写的得力推荐信。一年前，他还是一个站在台上说话声音很低的小老师，半年后，他不仅没有了以前的害羞，更是成为春晖教育学院拥有许多学生的名师。。。。

有人说，他不是Lynbrook学生中的顶聪明的学生，他的成功是因为他的勤奋。他学习的动力到底从哪里来？他是怎么选课，怎么挑选课外活动？学校不会教的各种奥林匹克竞赛，他是怎么学出来的？

MIT是多少成绩同样优异的学生的梦想，多少得到了多项奥林匹克竞赛大奖的同学却与 MIT 失之交臂，他是怎么了解MIT，怎么从Essay上让自己胜出的呢？

欢迎来参加这场真实经验分享：怎么走进MIT？
