Requirements for A level student

<p>The story is that I did my 9th, 10th and half of my 11th grades in an American high school. Now, I have had to move with my family back to Asia. I am currently studying in a British system school and thus, am doing my A-levels. When i apply to colleges, what will be their requirements for a student like me who has studied in different systems???? When I left, I had 2.5 English credits under my belt but here in Asia, few people take English as a subject in A-level and it isn't even offered at most places!!!!! I am taking Mathematics, Chemistry and Biology.... What will the universities do about my English requirements??? Most want 4 English credits.......... I am sooooo confused....</p>

<p>BTW, I have given the SAT test and have gotten reasonable scores in the English portions..... 630 CR and 690 WRITING.... Will that help in anyway since I do not have English classes anymore????</p>

<p>At top universities, you can assume that the admissions officers are familiar with the education system(s) you have been through. </p>

<p>If English is your native language, just state that on your application, then no problem. If not, some universities may require you to take the TOEFL, with some granting exemption for an SAT CR score above a certain level. Check their admissions website for more information.</p>

<p>Yes email the ones ur interested in, im sure they will understand and wont take this against you.</p>

<p>Have u tried studying further maths? its DA SHET lol</p>

<p>^ Na man not yet lol! Here in Bangladesh for A-level Math, we do the Edexcel curriculum. We need to do 4 basic modules (c1-c4) which are just calculus, advanced algebra etc. AND 2 supplementary modules on either statistics or mechanics......... After finishing these, you can go onto FURTHER MATH.... I've just done c1, c2 and s1 till now.... It'll prolly take me 2-3 more months to complete the others before further math....</p>

<p>sweet. Ill just warn you that the pure stuff is really really interesting. U do shet like linear algebra, induction, etc , its all kool. But when u do the mechanics, lol , u start pulling ur hair out like crazy lol. But its all worth it , a guy in my school who's in penn engineering has a 4.0 GPA and i heard he internally transferred to wharton as well and he studied further maths, though we have UCLES O and A lvl exams here</p>
