Hello,

Will a 600 in Biology M significantly impact my chances of getting into MIT? (the main reason I scored so low was that I have only taken Bio I at my local community college, which is equivalent to the first semester of AP Bio so 1/2 of the material I have not covered… I did earn an A in that class). Should I even apply

My stats:
-URM
-35 (36 M, 36 S) on the ACT
-800 in Math 2
-4.0 unweighted GPA
-…600 in Biology M
-paid internship at an Ivy League school

If there is another test you could score higher on, you should try for a score that starts with a seven.
Otherwise, it is what it is.

You might want to explain that low score in the section that asks if you have anything you’d like to add, just like you explained it here.
