Students aiming to study in a technical field should achieve high SAT or ACT math scores, but just how high is not always clear.
Reported SAT/ACT math data from technical schools like MIT, Georgia Tech, Carnegie Mellon, and Virginia Tech, highlight the expectations for top students in these fields.
The average 50th percentile mark between these schools is just above 750. The highest among the schools is found at MIT which is a perfect 800. Virginia Tech reports its 50th at 670.
The average 75th percentile mark between all four schools is a bit lower between 770 and 780. MIT and Carnegie Mellon have the highest, both reaching 800. Virginia Tech reports their 75th percentile at 720.
ACT data reveals an identical trend.
