There's definitely nothing wrong with majoring in STEM and also being involved with the arts. The only time this becomes a problem is if the arts begin taking over all of your time and leave you with little to no time for your STEM studies. I got nothing against the arts but they certainly won't pay the bills for most people lol whereas STEM definitely will.

Well, there is a research showing that people who floss daily tend to enjoy longevity. This is definitely not due to solely flossing daily alone, but rather due to the fact that people who floss daily mostly having other good habits naturally. So I guess there is a link somewhere in there between raspberry oatmeal and getting into MIT and you just have to placebo your mind into it, and with a little bit of luck and a whole lot of hard work, you'll get in!

There are no such things as magic or miracles and from what I skimmed from the second article, the Quran is nothing more than a book of myths which dominates middle eastern culture.

Even though it really doesn’t feel like it lol, but I know of 100s of people who have gotten opportunities to study abroad for as little as nothing and learn about their passions especially because the elite schools are well funded and therefore very generous with their aid. So hopefully that encourages you to see the hope for opportunities around the world for education, as it has for me.

Around 12 lakh student try to get into IISC Bangalore and only 2 lakh in MIT so its legit that the entrance exam for IISC Bangalore would be tougher.... I KNOW that American universities provide far more better education than india's but there is legit reason for that... "POPULATION" in my opinion INDIA'S biggest problem is population and thats why many bright students are going abroad for there studies and never come back... IISC is also a world recognized institute recently some of the students published a journal in quantum mechanics..

You could still apply and get in after a year at an average school bro. Check out this link. mitadmissions.org/apply/transfer/before A couple things I would say is 1) Don't take on more than 15 credits your first semester of freshman year no matter what your advisor says. 2)Do whatever it takes to get straight A's(go to every lecture, always ask a few questions, go to office hours once a week, read the textbook and watch videos on the topic a day before lecture, start studying for midterms a week and a half in advance, make friends who are also focused). 3) Don't get a girlfriend. 4) Only join like 1 or 2 clubs/activities. No need to get too involved if you want to transfer. NEVER SELL YOURSELF SHORT
Truly inspiring, I too am in the middle between the arts and engineering. Now thanks to Garrett I feel more confident I can pursue both at the same time
on a deeper level: when students change majors having the option to actually form your own major is such an amazing thing to have.

I have exactly same passions for music and engineering.

If that's within your reach, don't waste the opportunity. Effort is just a very small price to pay, when you're already so much ahead in life. Don't take things for granted. Good luck!

This looks so aesthetically good looking. A huge like from my side :)
I looked him up and he works for Disney now :)
if this was in india, these are the main things to note- 1) everyone's indian 2)everyone's studying 24/7 3)classes are from 8 am to 4 pm 4) sleep is non-existent 5)there is nothing called free time and no recreation 6) u hav to die for 4-5.5 years
Great video, some great principles presented by a talented man
Did not realize mit had a decent music program. I want to be an engineer but I’m also a musician. This was very eye opening in a good way :)
good luck with your studies and everything you do

This is an awesome channel! The videos are informative and well made. It should have more subscribers! I also recognize the host from videos on Harvard's channel from the past few years. He is quite funny and makes a wonderful host 😄
I love how MIT has strong support within the engineering course and are super flexible and do all these things to support students. I guess that's why it's MIT. My capstone class if student paid, unless you manage to to knab a sponsor.
This man is going somewhere.. He is GUUD
I love how he's not stuck in one subject. He's multitasking and multi talented. Also some people think that mechanical engineers only are interested on engines cars and stuff and I love how he's room is disney decorated
Great talent .. thank you crimpson
Instant realisation of how unproductive I am-
I really loved this guy. I always felt like a weird person while being in Civil Engineering but also really passionate about photography and acting.
This guy does college right. Much respect for Garrett.
Wow! I wonder what would happen if everyone had access to this quality of education.

Wow he is super talented. Playing music, drawing and also smart since he is MIT student. His room is really convenient

This is literally my dream. NOT JOKING. This video actually motivated me to force myself more into maths and science. And thanks to this video I feel comfortable working extra on mathematics and physics. It dosen't feel boring anymore. I know my path and I'll dow whatever it requires from SAT or TOFL to get enrolled in the future. Sometimes, offering chill times for extra work and effort really helps you to understand and learn something new which can help you later on in life.

The difference from him and the people feeling sorry for themselves in the comments is that he doesn’t look at the end goal wanting to be there the next day. He understands the hard work and dedication it takes to put in. If you have an idea don’t think it’s impossible to fulfill just work at it and it will happen. It’s like working out, if you look at your body day to day you won’t notice a difference, but if you look back a year down the line you’ll notice a huge difference . Everyone starts from somewhere
