<p>just wondering does it look bad if yo have had a low sat math scroe like 700 then 710?</p>
<p>What on earth gave you the idea that a 710 math score was low? By MIT standards, it's not "high", but it's not going to cause you to be rejected.</p>
<p>700+ puts you in the competitive range, so don't worry about it. Your SAT is in a range such that it won't affect your admission one way or the other.</p>
<p>Hi. <em>waves</em></p>
<p>I got a 700 on the math reasoning exam.</p>
<p>Sincerely,
Current MIT student.</p>
<p>Don't be so hasty, 750+ is indeed a little better than a 700, MIT doesn't ignore the SAT score completely, and 700 is below the median
So if you feel like you got screwed when you took the test and you deserve a 750+, there's nothing wrong with taking it again
On the flip side, you won't get looked down on in any way by admissions for having a 700, so if that's the score you get on average in practice tests, just focus on the other (more important) parts of your app</p>
<p>No one is saying that MIT ignores the SAT score... just that a score of 700 isn't really going to affect your admissions that much. It's not 750+, yeah, but if you don't get in, it's not like having an 800 would have "pushed you over the edge."</p>
