SAT after IGCSE's
« on: April 02, 2011, 11:09:44 pm »
Hey,
I am not sure if this question has been asked here, and it probably has, but I wanted to know if taking SAT examinations would be possible for me after doing the IGCSE's.
Right now I am in grade 10, and I shall be doing my IGCSE's in May/June and have recently been thinking of also doing the SAT exam.
Will it be like super hard for me, or easier than the IG's?
And if I do want to do it, when do you think would be the most appropiate session?
And it would be nice if I could possibly be given an overview on the SATs, since most sited I have visited concerning it are not the most informative.
The help would be MUCH appreciated!
Thanks
 :)

Indeed. Most unis in USA are more keen on SATs rather than A-levels. But, make sure you confirm it with the uni you wanna go to. :)

For MIT, you need
Maths, Critical reading.
2 SAT subject test.

You need scores of 750-800 in subjects to go in MIT. If you need more info then tell me.

Do you have SAT official study guide? It is given in that. I will be giving SAT after A levels.
Proof. ID card, Driving license, Or Election card or something which is proof with photo.
