[quote=Anonymous]OP -- I just looked up MIT's and Duke's scores and that reading score is slightly below their 25th percentile of their accepted students, so since you say she has no special angles I would have her prep hard and try to get that score up for at least those two schools unless she is going to blow them all away on the science side. I think MIT is much tougher to get into than the other two (which are both very tough themselves) -- go to their web site if you haven't yet and you can see. Also, remember that for MIT your child needs very specific SAT IIs in certain math/science subjects. Before deciding whether to retake the SAT, make sure she's got a good plan in place for the SAT IIs. I don't want to sound negative, but you have to realize that there are many, many kids with 800s in math who apply to MIT so that gets a kid in the conversation but you need more to raise the odds. .
