Sat math 720 for engineering

[collegealum314]

<p>

Just make sure you get an 800 on math II subject test. It’s a higher level math test while the math portion of the sat is a puzzle solving test with a tough curve and the admissions officers know this. It is not worth it in my opinion to spend the money on another sat.

<p>The Math II is not higher level than the SAT I math In fact, it is easier to get 800 on the Math SAT II.</p>

<p>In general, you shoot for 750-800 range on math SATI for top colleges. Anything less than that starts to look like you are either very careless or couldn’t figure out a couple of problems. MIT always says they don’t care as long as you are above 700. A 720 may be a red flag to Caltech, though. You’d have to compensate that with a high AMC score.</p>

<p>I might consider retaking, but it won’t sink you. It’s just a hair (probably one question) below the optimum range.</p>
