<p>Hey guys! I am a Pakistani student currently residing in Middle East and here's my academic profile. I got 4A* (Accounting, Business Studies, Economics and ESL) 1A (Maths) and 3B's (Urdu as second lang, ICT and Islamiyat) in my Olevels. Got 3A's (Accounting, Business Studies and Economics) and 1B (AICT) in my AS level. I will give my A2 exam this May/June 2013 InshaAllah and am hoping for 3A's atleast.</p>
<p>I gave SAT1 at November and got a miserly score of 1740. I'll be giving SAT1 again this January 26. My EC's are almost non existent, with few school certificates for debates and certificates for being a member of my school's cricket and basketball team.</p>
<p>Is there any hope for me to get into a good Canadian or American university in an annual budget of $15000 which includes tuition fees, living costs etc. I probably would need substantial amount of aid for that. I'm not talking about an Ivy league uni, since I know I won't be able to make it, but a good university which ranks among the top 200 in the world.</p>
<p>I am hoping for a score around 2100 atleast when I give SAT again at January 26. Though, I'm afraid I would have missed uni deadlines by then. Any help would be much appreciated :)</p>
<p>I am quite like you mate. I will also appear this January,hopefully i ace this one.</p>
<p>Some of the southern ones are a tad cheaper. Try LSU. Good food down there too.</p>
<p>Hi Baller, i think i can help you on that 
PM me please :-)</p>
<p>Hey my name is ali khan. I will be a senior next year and applying for colleges. I am currently doing the o and a level system in Pakistan . I took the sat and got 750 in math, 670 cr, 550 writing ( messed up one section) . I want to apply to some good universities in America. I was wondering if I should switch over and do the ACT instead of the SAT because then I will escape the dreaded sat subject tests. The subject tests are difficult for me as we haven’t really covered the entire syllabus in our school system which will make it tough for me to take those tests. What do you think I should do? My o level result was amazing, I got straight As and my school transcript is flawless. Not sure if I should redo the sat and take sat 2s or just switch to the act.???</p>
<p>You are good in two critical sections of SAT 1 and only bad in writing. You can work upon it and it is easy if you get the help of a tutor; just remember if you are good in maths then you are good in writing because both are equally technical subjects. I would reccomend you give SAT 1 again and as far as SAT 2 is concerned, you will have to study yourself about 20% of the things in physics and math level 2. I prepared for my SAT 2 in just 1.25 months and aced it. SAT 2 should be a breeze for students who wants to go to top US unis…</p>
