<p>I checked the top ranked business schools on businessweek.com and I saw that the average SAT score for NYU Stern was 1438. Surprisingly, the average for MIT was 1387. Does this mean that Sloan is less competitive than Stern? I know that MIT usually only accepts people with 4.0 GPAs and 2300 SAT Scores but is the Sloan school different? Do I have a chance with a 93.7/100 GPA and 540/750/780(2070) SAT?</p>
<p>You don’t apply to Sloan, you can only apply to MIT. After you get accepted, then you may choose w/e major.</p>
<p>So in that sense, getting into Sloan, is probably much harder than Stern.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>False. MIT regularly rejects such people in favor of others with lower scores because the 4.0/2300’s of the world aren’t all MIT matches.</p>

<p>Are you talking about undergrad or grad? Undergrad, you don’t get into Sloan, you get into MIT then choose to do business. Grad, a load goes on between SAT’s and grad school - it’d be like caring about your 7th grade GPA when you’re applying to MIT.</p>
<p>OK, thanks. I understand now. I was talking about undergraduate.</p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>Either place is amazing. Stern is in the center of NYC’s bustling financial sector, and MIT Sloan… is just MIT :D</p>

<p>Where did you hear that? College Board says it’s 1470/1600. </p>
<p>Also to note, SAT scores are not a direct measure of competitiveness.</p>
