Low TOEFL score

<p>What if I get s.th. like 250 on the TOEFL exam. I know I can do much better, but I just didn't concentrate enough. Will this hurt, should I take again? I don't have SAT I scores yet, but I thought it wouldn't be too bad.
Plz some feedback</p>

<p>well, my friends from MIT say that to increase your chances for MIT or at least to compansate for the SAT VERBAL, u have to get more than 650 on the paper based test. ı dont know whats the equivalent of that in computer based. I am also applying to MIT this year and my TOEFL score is 653 and twe is 5.0 . BUt if u get more than 250 i think it will netiher affect u positively or negatively.</p>

<p>Hmm, 650 would be the same as 280 in the CBT. Damn, that's too high. I don't think that this is necessary..hmm</p>

<p>250 or higher approx from MIT site</p>
