<p>I want to get into UC Berkeley, Caltech, MIT, or Stanford but I am unsure about my SAT scores.</p>
<p>SAT I: 2250
M: 720
CR: 730
W: 800</p>
<p>SATII Math: 800
SATII Chem: 790</p>
<p>don't want to post full details right now, but are those scores in the range that I can compensate with good ECs and GPA?</p>
<p>of course they're good..although your Math score for MIT is probably average? there really isn't anything to "compensate" for</p>
<p>My friend got into MIT with a 2140 and 760 or lower on the three SATIIs he took, so there are more factors!</p>
<p>you're in good shape</p>
<p>more than good enough. once you get in that range, you would never be rejected because of your test scores.</p>
<p>scores are good enough. Nothing spectacular, but then, you don't need spectacular scores because it is the ECs that really help you stand out.</p>
<p>good for Berk.</p>
<p>although its strange how you scored the lowest on the SAT math?</p>
<p>yea, idk why my math score is that low. I'm actually among the best at math in my year.</p>
<p>might want to raise the SAT I math score for MIT</p>
<p>You're clearly a good test taker, so why not take one more SATII, I know colleges say 2-3, so why not 3? Here's what I think, take it or leave it... get a liberal artsy SATII in there. With your two strong SAT cr/wri sections, I think you would be able to knock it out. That will really round your scores well. Of course, at this point, I'm not sure if that is an option for you...
And you definitely have a good shot with those scores, as long as you have a strength in the non stat areas, like teacher rec and essay. If you are an interesting, unique person, with those scores, I think you're in.</p>
