I have heard from graduate MIT students that MIT keeps undergraduates at a certain level on purpose so as not to discourage the students who are not as gifted.
Don't let the fact that you got rejected prevent you from doing what you love! This portfolio shows that you are an incredibly gifted individual that is eager to learn new stuff. That alone will get you extremely far in life! Best of luck! 💪
That's insane. You literally have to be freaking tony stark genius prodigy just get into MIT. I just graduated with a masters in Electrical Engineering and Physics and some of these MIT maker portfolios would even have me struggling now and that's just in strictly in the electrical hardware portion. Dude keep it up your going to go far in this world, there's very few people with drive and passion to change the world and even fewer people with the knowledge to do it.
Not at all, there’s just too many people for 1 university so they filter people out even geniuses if they don’t stand out on certain criteria’s (which are not their field related and subjective) and rest is luck. The only requirement you need is to be academically well and have good problem solving and reasoning capabilities, which are earned through practice and experience. But not getting selected still is the above reasons I mentioned.
I think MIT rejected his project because in the beginning of the video he mentioned that he used to make Minecraft mods in 6th grade using Java script Probably it means that MIT doesn't accept someone who has played video games But I appreciate this guy's efforts and skills , though he got rejected but one day he will succeed in career
@@TwistyTurnyy1053 There are actually criteria to be accepted to MIT, and not because you code and tinker doesn't mean you qualify. You got to have superior mathematical knowledge, scientific understanding, and competitive exposure. You are competing among the smartest humans on earth: math olympiads, physics olympiads, Asians who are topnotching in math, programming, and science competitions and you think a dude who knows how to make a drone will get accepted lol
I can see why, though it's not because of their qualifications. It's that the video didn't go beyond a CV, whereas it should focus on the process/motivation: what was the original problem, why did you want to improve/solve it, how did you go from 0 to finished product, what did you learn/what would you improve in future iterations.
Well, there are many factors that go into their decision and honestly, after the whole admission process, I do not think the maker portfolio is a big driving factor. Also, nationality might also have an effect there. Nevertheless, it was worth trying!
This is super strong, and you would obviously do very well at MIT. The problem I see: this video is not digestible. It's hard for me to really understand _what_ you built and _why_ you built it. An AO might watch this video and be impressed, but not really know why they are impressed. Not sure if this makes sense, but I wanted to add my two cents in case it might help anyone.
extremely impressive, I've seen so many maker portfolios that were worse than yours yet they got in. A shame it is, you're a gem I believe you got a great future ahead of you.
I've seen some pretty underwhelming portfolios accepted; yours is much better in comparison. I can't understand what they're thinking when they review someone's portfolio. You've even interned and wrote whitepapers while the other portfolios didn't.
With that resume, you could work at any tech company for a mid 6 digit salary without even having to go to MIT. Trust me. I work in Tech Consulting. I do not have a college degree and worked my way up just like you did, although none of my projects were even remotely as impressive as yours. You'll do great in whatever you do because you have an insane problem solving ability. People are willing to pay a lot of money for that.
selam, ben çok beğendim. MIT kaybetmis. gördüğüm kadarıyla TU Dresden de okuyorsun. almanyadaki TU9 larda çok iyi. kafanı yorma. ich wunsche dir viel erfolg. ciao!
Başarıların devamını dilerim hocam, kendini Horizon EU( eski adıyla HORIZON 2020 ) projelerine adamanı öneririm. Tabii buradaki projelerde yer alabilmen için konsorsiyumlarda söz sahibi olabilmen için bir firmada çalışıyor olman lazım ya da bir firma sahibi :) Yaşın ilerledikçe doğru bir fikir üzerinden startup kurup daha sonrasında hibelenen projelere kendini adarsan çok başarılı ve zevkli bir yaşantı sürebilirsin bence. Veyahut bir firmada AR&GE departmanında görevli olarak step,step yükselerek. ( herkesin kendi hayali vardır ve özeldir bu yazdıklarım sadece sana ekstra bakış açısı kazandırmak içindi, kolay gelsin )
Pretty nice. Still good enough to get into most Tier 1 schools. Better not study in USA unless your parents are loaded. The student loans are just a scam.
You have more chance to enter MIT as a visually impaired kid who's above average in studies than as a very smart kid who designs protractors for the visually impaired.
rejection is redirection. Although this is a year late, i hope you realized that you dont need MIT to be great. you might already know this. anyways... stay up

as an mit student I can say you are a much better maker than the average mit student and the university took a big L by not taking u

If that's true thats a weird reason for rejection. People have their pastimes!@@TwistyTurnyy1053
@@TwistyTurnyy1053lol no way universities care about whether you game or not… half of these makers started with game mods

Can’t imagine what was accepted. There were some very advanced processes highlighted in this.

Some guy designed a rocket nozzle and that got accepted.
I made a drone big enough to lift me up. Yet i have no chance to get in because my GPA is 3.1@@Vilakazi
This just showed up in my recommended, and I must say, this is good stuff! Keep up the great work, you're on the path to greatness.
if this was rejected we don't stand a chance 😭
Probably because (it seems that) he's international

Yolun açık olsun dostum eminim çok başarılı olacaksın
I got my phd in physics from ucla, youre too good for mit my dood, keep up the good work
Tha's genuinely impressive, well done !
I’m 24 and in my 2nd semester of software dev. Watching all these is hella demotivating I struggle with what ya taught yourself as a kid
abi başarılar diliyorum sakın pes etme
This inspired me to give up coding, thank you
dirt to diamond you are fucking amazing
extremely impressive, I've seen so many maker portfolios that were worse than yours yet they got in. A shame it is, you're a gem I believe you got a great future ahead of you.
this is mad impressive, im in my 3rd year and struggling on basic projects, good job👍
goodluck my guy
this is incredible
Just wait until @lockheedmartin gets a hold of you
You've got what it takes.
bro looks the guy who made terravision (google maps)
Helal olsun kardeşim. Gurur duydum.
MIT admissions department, you've got some explaining to do!
I've seen some pretty underwhelming portfolios accepted; yours is much better in comparison. I can't understand what they're thinking when they review someone's portfolio. You've even interned and wrote whitepapers while the other portfolios didn't.
that TUD sweater :D
You are amazing 🎉
Wow youll go far without them man! Keep it up, their loss!
I made a giant drone i can sit and fly in. Unfortunately I wont even try to enter since my GPA is a 3.1 they wouldn't watch with that stat.
You're awesome dude. Would love to work with you one day
Sick Video
really cool stuff
how can i learn to do any of these stuff this is beyond impressive
just start off by searching up how to do things you find cool or interesting

MIT was probably just worried you'd out-perform their professors, that's why you didn't get accepted. Keep up the grind!
If bro got rejected... I stand no chance xD

Impressive my man
keep up the good work burakcım.
MIT gonna regret not taking you
Awesome 🔥
You're great
thought this was a cer spence video by the thumbnail
Careful rejecting talent , it is the stuff super villains are made of.
I am curious about your final decision for the college. Please keep us updated!
bro you dont need mit, they need you
Nice presentation. :)
So impressive
I'm so glad I'm not one of the people denying/accepting these. There is some real talent not being accepted.
Your rejection has to be related to the fact you did not show anything hands on with you interacting with your designs
Nuts!
Where are you now?
amazing
I would love to see a Turkish student at MIT

Its cause of school diversity standards your a king and they dont want you to succeed 👑
Olamamış ama olsun hocam. Umarım başarılı olursun
Best way to improve is to get used to rejections. Better luck next year 🥳👌
MIT de tankla girilecekler listesine eklendi
its unfortunate that u got rejected but I think international students have even smaller chance then the US based ones
The hand thing camera, its already invented, copium
hey nice, what team in frc?
during the scouting section you can see 6838
FRC goated
Like others pointed out, 6838 X-SHARC from Istanbul :)
If this guy got rejected my ass has no chance😂
😅
ya aga bu portfolyoyla kabul etmemelerinin sebebini açıklamadılar mı bi yazsadın keşke
Seni de rejectledilerse Burak boşver belkide doğru seçenek değil demek :D
I feel so bad watchings those videos.
it's hella cool
Budget of projects under 10.000 and you get disqualified. Simple as that. You did great job man, keep pushing with your cool projects.
Pretty nice. Still good enough to get into most Tier 1 schools. Better not study in USA unless your parents are loaded. The student loans are just a scam.
Bro wtf does mit want
Dude stop kidding you were applying to be a teacher or what
This got rejected?? Yeah I'm not getting in anywhere
hey Burak, 17yr old from Maryland here. can you recommend resources and textbooks for a self-learner?
help me fight for the light of consciousness!
their loss budd
This is sick, I dont understand why this gets rejected. Did they give you feedback or anything for the reason why it got rejected?
Onların kaybı olmuş reyiz sıkma canını. Türkiyede lisans seviyesindeki eğitim fena değil raad ol.
selam Burak, öncelikle gerçekten güzel maker portfolio. Rejecting nedeni var mıydı? Bir de diğer faktörler (sat filan) nasıldı?
i'm sorry for breathing the same air as u bro 🙏
They messed up by not accepting you
You shouldn't waste your time and money with education.
FAILURE
were you deferred or just straight up rejected?

cmon man.. im an industrial designer.. so i am average?
Your accent is nice lol
Rejected?
MIT took an L
abi sesin ingilizce listening gibi :D
Subbed
I think you mentioned too many things at once instead of focusing on one big project and explaining it deeply.
emek verip emeğinin karşılığını alamamak nasıl hissettiriyor?
mit'e girmesede emeginin karsiligini alacak mit'ten kabul alamadi diye emegi cope mi gitmis olucak
