<p>I just notice this line of text under "is English your native language".</p>

<p>I moved to US since 6th grade. Although English is still not my strongest subject, but I am pretty sure I can speak English well enough to pass these tests.</p>

<p>But it states "TOEFL or IELTS is required", I have no idea how to sign up for these test and certainly not going to have time to make it before deadline, should I just go ahead and lie about my native language (which is Chinese), or just ignore this requirement altogether.</p>

<p>Thanks for the help.</p>

<p>if your ACT/SAT scores in reading are high then it shouldn’t be a problem.</p>

<p>If your SAT reading is above 600, I think you don’t need to take TOEFL…</p>
