[@covers_con_ale]

I feel so identified with you, thank you so much, very complete information and really amazing for international students as me!! I want to make you three questions, I hope you can help me! 1. did you have an interview for Harvard during the admission process? 2. When you say that the ideal time for prepare for SAT is 8 weeks, it means doing nothing more than prep in those weeks? 3. The time for subject tests is 8 weeks both or 8 weeks each one?

[@wangarimwangi2955]

you're welcome!!1. yes i had a Harvard interview 2. if you can focus on sat only then thats good but if you have school then you have to set aside time every day to work on the sat 3. 8 weeks both

[@chikamaduka5468]

Pls Wangari my son just scored 1490 in this lastDigital SAT . I want him to get scholarship. Pls how do I go about it? I am writing from Nigeria and cannot fees in America.

[@whatis.afairy]

Whoever can answer this question, please do (since Wangari has been off for some time): I'm Ugandan, and the difference between UNEB and KCSE is that we have those form 1-4 results, BUT there are also the A Level ones that come after the RD deadline. So for the grades she submitted, did those count for A Levels or were they O Levels? I didnt perform that highly (got 12 in best 8) and now I'm worried.

[@truelye1600]

We only have O levels in kenya,and i think thats what she submitted,but i think your counselor can submit your A levels since the deadline for submission of documents is in around february...good luck

omygosh thanks!!! I didn't take IELTS or TOEFL. They are required for most universities if English is not your first language. They waived the requirement for me because 1. I scored above 700 on the verbal section of SAT and 2. English is my first language and I've studied it for 12 years.
