There is quite a bit of work. The problem sets are usually designed to make you think, so looking up formulas in the book blindly is not helpful.

You usually have a few hours of lecture a day. How you fill the rest is up to you. There are many sports/clubs/things to do, it varies.

The UROP program is great in that it allows undergrads to very easily get research positions at amazing labs, and get paid for it.

Occasionally you get to sleep.

The bottom line is that MIT gives you no shortage of rope to hang yourself with - you have many options in how to occupy your time.

MIT is located in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

The average GPA of MIT students is roughly 3.0 on a 4.0 scale. MIT doesn't release grade statistics about its students (no class rank, etc.) so I don't think more accurate information is available.

Minimum requirements for admission are a small step towards acceptance but include standardized tests and leadership experience. Some majors even require a portfolio (Media arts for example)
