<p>I heard this news from a friend who is studying in England, she told me that she doesn't need to take the SAT since she has her A Level Scores and neither her TOEFL because of her IELTS.</p>
<p>Is this true?</p>
<p>Thanks in advance :)</p>
<p>Nope, they are not convertible. The SAT (especially the Reasoning Test) and the A-levels are testing for two different things.</p>
<p>Not at all. SAT and A-Levels are two different things. But completed A-Levels can substitute SAT subject tests (according to Yale’s policy)</p>
<p>Yeah, some schools will accept recent A Levels in place of SAT subject tests (check their individual policies on that) but most I’ve seen require the SAT regardless.</p>
<p>Each school makes its own policy about exams, so you really truly do need to investigate this on a school-by-school basis. If you have questions about a specific school’s policy, it is OK for you to email the international admissions office and ask.</p>
<p>Absolutely, at MOST competitive schools, they require the SAT or ACT exams which are available in Britain (<a href=“http://www.fulbright.co.uk/media/pdf/UGStudy/Exams_At_A_Glance_-_Undergraduate.pdf[/url]”>http://www.fulbright.co.uk/media/pdf/UGStudy/Exams_At_A_Glance_-_Undergraduate.pdf</a>). They will however know how to interpret and view A-level grades. At some universities, you may substitute A-levels for other exams, but these are a clear minority.</p>
<p>Alright, I’ll my friend about this, thanks for all your support! :)</p>
