scuba - I think MIT weighs the recommendations, personal stuff and others much more than just your scores and research. I got in with no research, less than 1500, not perfect SAT2s, less than 3.9 GPA (if including freshman year). But I am first generation and I got amazing recommendations as well as a good essay.

Paul - MIT is hardcore… but crazy research is not needed. = )
