Should I report my SAT II scores (they're terrible)?

Paying for College Access Programs (Questbridge, Posse)
1

<p>Hi, I'm filling out the QuestBridge application right now, and, though previous threads with stats of Finalists have been comforting, I'm not sure if I should report my Subjects scores.</p>

<p>Math II: 650
Chemistry: 650
Physics: 690
(I'm retaking in October).</p>

<p>I really want to go to MIT and I'm just afraid that these scores will shoot down my Finalist chances, even if I'm not matched. Even though I'm a girl in STEM and an URM, and my SAT I is good (2330 superscore), my family's not that poor - we make around 50k.</p>

<p>Anyways, I just have a lot of insecurities regarding college apps right now! Any advice?</p>

<p>You may feel bad about your scores but realize that MIT won’t consider you at all if you don’t report them! Your other stats seem fine anyway. Carefully write your essays and capitalize on any trauma/family issues you may have experienced.</p>

<p>You have to report them. MIT requires them. Do the best you can on the october test to up your chances.</p>

<p>Those are not terrible scores- they’re actually above average for a finalist. maybe below average for MIT, but they won’t hurt you in being named a finalist.</p>
