After being rejected from MIT, and getting admission in UC Berkeley, I got to know where my shortcomings were. I might not have another chance to change it, but I can surely give you some pointers which might be useful for you.

• Always try keeping your grades up. Try to obtain a minimum of 9 CGPA or above.
• After applying for MIT in your 6th semester, do not take your 7th semester lightly. Your scores will play an important role.
• Try to obtain a high GRE score of 330 or above. Focus mainly on English for GRE.
• Read English newspapers, editorials, magazines, and novels to improve your vocabulary and writing.
• Study GRE materials. Quantitative Aptitude in GRE is comparatively easier.
• Do projects on innovative topics, publish your work, and try acquiring internships at IITs and IISC. 

Lastly, talk to the teachers as they can guide you thoroughly. Make your Statement of Purpose worthy enough. But always remember that MIT is not your only option. Do not get disappointed if you don't get admission there as there will be other options also.
