Hi

Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is one of the finest institute in the world. The way to MIT is not so easy but not at all impossible.

You need to have a excellent academic background. With atleast 85-95% in your board exams.You need to give the TOEFL test, SAT reasoning test and SAT subject tests(one in maths and other in science}. Scores required for each of the examinations are 90/100 for internet based testor 577/600 for paper based test.( TOEFL test), 2200/2400(SAT1 Reasoning test), 750/800 For SAT2 (each subject test). Maths and science.

However, all students are required to demonstrate minimum competence in fields they will continue to study at MIT. It is recommend that all international students study:

• Four years of English
• Mathematics, at least to the level of calculus
• Two or more years of history / social studies

While these courses are not strictly required, studying them will increase the chances that you will be sufficiently prepared academically to attend MIT.
