Complex IF Statements

I am trying to write a, IF statement in a formula that will evaluate as follows:
If field A is greater than or equal to 27 OR either field B OR field C are greater than or equal to 610, AND field D is equal to MG-UG, return the value of Option1” otherwise go to the next criteria and so on.

 
Below is what I used.  It did not return a syntax error but it also did not work.  I suspect the issue to be in the “either” part of the formula.
 
IF(Highest_ACT_Composite__c  >= 27 || ((Highest_SAT_I_Verbal__c >=610 ||(Highest_ERWS__c >=610)) && (Contains("MG-UG",(Student_Rec_Major_Code_1__c)))),"Business Math",
 
Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

So - is the "AND Field D is equal to MG-UG" part of the first OR?
Is it an AND ?

So - is it stated like this?  Basicall - just one OR...
IF(Highest_ACT_Composite__c  >= 27 ||
      ((Highest_SAT_I_Verbal__c >=610 || Highest_ERWS__c >=610) &&
        (Contains("MG-UG",(Student_Rec_Major_Code_1__c))))
       )
    ,"All is True", "All is False"
)

or.... - is it like this?
IF((Contains("MG-UG",(Student_Rec_Major_Code_1__c))) &&
     (Highest_ACT_Composite__c  >= 27 || ((Highest_SAT_I_Verbal__c >=610 || Highest_ERWS__c >=610))),
    "All is True", "All is False"
)

See the difference?

Thank you Ryan The 2 components of the OR portion are the SAT Verbal and ERWS. The ACT and the Major are two separate conditions. Condition 1: ACT >=27 (if they took this test and scored 27 or more, they get “business math”) Condition 2: SAT 1 Verbal and ERWS >=610 (If they took either of these and scored 610 or higher, they get “Business Math” even if ACT is below 27) Condition 3: Major – MG-UG In essence, they have to have MG-UG as their major and either scored a 27+ on Act or a 610+ on either the SAT or ERWS in order to get “Business Math” Does this make sense?
