Seems grave for me. lulz.[/COLOR]
The only person from my county to have gone to MIT in the past 5 years was hispanic and was like a state-champ swimmer or something. Seriously, if you're a white male, you're screwed (I got rejected from there too xD). My brother knew a white guy that got in, but my brother's like 28 now, so that was 10 years ago. He said the valedictorian of his class got in, but the guy got a 1600 on the SAT.
I really took a huge risk in applying to colleges. I only applied to MIT, Oxford-Emory, Emory, and Georgia Tech. Got denied by MIT in December, haven't heard from Oxford-Emory or Emory yet (I don't really care though..40k a year is disgusting. The only school worth that much to me would have been MIT), and GA Tech accepted me, so I'll be going there xP
