查到了上下文,
The ability to prioritize balance. Work hard, play hard. Despite what you may have heard, this place is NOT all about work. To be successful here, you must prioritize some measure of down-time. Therefore we like to see that you've prioritized some down-time in high school as well.
從Merrium Webster 韋氏詞典查到的意思是
inactive time (as between periods of work)
這句話的意思是,
如果想在這成功的話,你得知道怎么對學(xué)習(xí)之外的閑暇時間進(jìn)行優(yōu)先級排序（指合理安排時間,達(dá)到時間管理的最優(yōu)化）.所以麻省理工大學(xué)想要知道你在高中時是怎么安排課余時間的.
