I know two people who got into and went to MIT as undergrads.
One was a supergenius who (many years ago) wrote a 3-D gaming engine in his spare time during high school and sold it to a large gaming company for something like $60K.
The other was smart but not a genius. He was a regional wrestling champion and MIT wanted him for their team.
I also know of someone who was accepted by Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, CalTech, and ten other highly exclusive institutions -- but was rejected by MIT.
