[quote=Anonymous]Opinions may vary, but I believe the math score is often more critical than the composite score, especially for engineering programs. That said, a 1450 is a solid score and should be competitive unless you're targeting highly rejective colleges. My child is currently applying to engineering programs without any STEM-related extracurriculars—no robotics clubs, no science fairs, nothing specific to engineering. With a similar test score and good but not outstanding grades, he has already been admitted to a couple of top 20 engineering programs. For top-tier engineering schools (e.g., top 20), you likely need strong STEM extracurriculars and a 1500+ test score. However, once you look beyond these elite programs, admissions tend to focus more on grades and test scores. Many of the best engineering programs are at large state universities, and these schools typically don't weigh extracurriculars as heavily as people might think. [/quote]
