Lack of EC in leadership won’t help, and your sat is a little low. It is currently a reach 10-20% chance. You’re ranking and GPA are great so if you could just raise SAT you’d have a good shot. Ivies are always reaches though. Keep that in mind.

For MIT, I don’t think you would have to report both your SAT and ACT, but I’m not entirely sure. Check with their website.

@nocontest MIT isn’t an ivy (but obviously its still always a reach)

Yeah I know, but it’s in their range of competitiveness. If you know what I mean. ACT is higher too which can increase your chance. Sorry didn’t notice it.
