When should i take my SAT's and what should be my scores in it?</p>
<p>I don’t know much about RISD or Pratts.
Yale- You just need to be one of the best to get admission. ( They are need-blind. i.e they admit applicants ( international ones too) without looking at the applicants’ financial status, so once you get admitted- you will have no problem if you have financial aid. But getting admitted there is extremely hard and competitive. You will be competing against the best brains in the world, with excellent grades, beautiful essays, good recommendation letters and extraordinary extracurriculars along with leadership skills and social work. SAT- recommended above 2100…but to be on the safer side, you need to be above 220 or 2200 at least. Grades in 11th final exam and 12th midterms will be taken, so you need to score above 90% at least in both of them. The higher; the better.<br>
Uchicago is competitive too but not as much as Yale. Still you need to have an excellent profile to get in there.</p>
<p>Thank you, this certainly helped me a lot.When do you recommend taking the SAT’s?</p>
