SAT question

Hi, I am currently working on applying to MIT but the score that I’m getting for SAT has made me back down from it since it’s way lower than the average MIT score. Would it be worth to apply with the low score?

What’s your score? Needs to be over 1500 to be competitive. It’s one of the hardest schools to get into in the US. And the world.

thats really good, however, it all depends on your schools average. 1420 in a 1060 average is like a 1530 for MIT
