<p>Can you get into MIT with mid 1600's</p>
<p>I would say… no. Pretty much definitely no.</p>
<p>Unless you’re Native American and have won several international olympiads and have a 4.0 and are awesome in every other respect.</p>
<p>^^(following la montagne’s sentence), in which case, you are too conflicting to begin with; MIT will be confused as to why you have gotten so low of a score with your abilities.
i would say no, as well.</p>
<p>Sure… if its old SAT. I really don’t think you could handle MIT with that score… I mean, something in the 1600s means you got a mid 500 or lower on at least one of the sections, which is pretty much just average nationally. While there are a handful (read: single digits) number of people who are accepted to MIT with a 500-600 on a section, they probably aced the other sections and have some really good hooks too.</p>
<p>you can’t get “mid-1600s” on an old SAT.</p>
<p>^ exactly.</p>
<p>unless you’re me. In that case, anything is possible :D</p>
<p>While I really really really hate saying yes or no to chances threads, I think you ought to take a look at [url=<a href=“http://www.mitadmissions.org/topics/apply/admissions_statistics/index.shtml]this[/url”>http://www.mitadmissions.org/topics/apply/admissions_statistics/index.shtml]this[/url</a>].</p>
<p>While they say 27 students with critical reading scores sub-550 got in, chances are good that they were either international students whose first language is not English but still had phenomenal TOEFL scores instead, or domestic applicants with a darn good reason for it. With an admit rate of 3%, the scenario would have to be something along those lines. </p>
<p>Not a single applicant with sub-550 math scores got in.</p>
<p>Haha, so let’s say you get an 800 on math, 400 on writing, and 450 on CR. Then, if you’re in one of the situations ducktape described to the max, you have a very, very slight chance. =P</p>
