Hello,
SAT is a standardised exam, the syllabus is the same all over and irrespective of the background. SAT Subject tests are required however the subject you must take depends on the university and what you want to study. Please find this information on the university website.

Hi Udayan,
Focus on your academics and study hard. Excellent percentile is required. Additionally, you must demonstrate an all-rounded profile that is taking part in extra curricular, project work, research, community or voluntary work. MIT is one of the toughest universities to get into and you need to prepare hard. A very good SAT score ( 1450+) is recommended. SAT subject tests are also required. You are also required to take the TOEFL. I will also advise you to visit the MIT admission webpage and see what all it takes to be an MIT student. All the best.

Hi,
Above 75% atleast if you have a very good all-rounded profile. And if you don't have any extra curricular and your overall profile is not strong then more than 85% should be targeted.

Hi Harshita,
You are talking about MIT here, one of the world's most competitive and top ranked universities. You must not only take entrance exams like SAT but you must also be an extraordinary student with high academic grades, extra curricular activities, project work. It is best you utilise this time browsing through MIT's website and understand the requirements and prepare accordingly.

Hi Aditya,
This is an ideal time to prepare for MIT or any other top ranking university. You can take the SAT or ACT during 11th and reattempt if required. Note you don't have to take both SAT and ACT but just one of them. Incase you take SAT, SAT subject tests are also required. Now, to build your profile take part in sports, voluntary work, high level project work, seminars etc. If you are interested in computers try to design something. In short show your intellect and innovative skills. But don't limit yourself to academic activities since they need all-rounders.
Good luck.

Hi Raguram,
There is no specific answer to this because MIT looks for students who can contribute to the university and the society as a whole. You must not only be an academically bright student you must also have high values, display ethics and passion to contribute to the society. Extracurricular activities, project work, sports, arts, voluntary work are very important. Just remember this - You need not be a bookworm but you are required to be an all-rounder and demonstrate your extraordinary side to the university. Ask yourself why they should admit you and prepare yourself accordingly. Read this carefully:

Hello,
Scholarships in MIT are need-based that is offered basis your financial background. Quite obviously you will be considered for a scholarship once you have been shortlisted and you will need an extraordinary profile to be considered. IIT JEE Advanced is not even required. You must take the SAT and SAT subject tests and the TOEFL. Apart from a very high academic percentile in 12th you must have an all-rounder profile and must have good scores in the SAT and TOEFL.
