<li><p>Is it likely that after giving me a conditional acceptance, the university will demand me to get high GPA (like 4.0) and high SAT score like 2200 other than high AP scores?
(I have 3.85 unweighted GPA and 2120 SAT I score.)</p></li>
<li><p>Who should be my referrer? Is it better if my referrer has experience in teaching in UK? Or is my counselor who knows me better more suited?</p></li>
</ul>
<p>The conditional acceptance specifies the conditions (hence the name). Typically they specify marks they you have to achieve on tests that you included on your application- almost always AP or SATII tests. For example, your offer may be conditional on achieving scores of 5 on your bio and calc APs! and a 4 or better on your chem AP. St Andrews <em>might</em> include a GPA condition as well! but that would seem unlikely to be an issue for you! as your GPA is currently well over St A’s requirements. In any case, the terms of your offer will be very clear and won’t change later. </p>
<p>On the other hand, if you are planning to go to uni in the UK you might want to work on your English syntax- “demand me to get” should be something such as 'require a".</p>
<p>For the UCAS form, your high school counselor must write it, but they can quote anybody they like, so getting relevant teachers, etc. who know you to give them Infoseek highly recommended.</p>
<p>Thanks for your answer. I think my SAT II scores are fine, so I just expect that I will need to get nice AP scores. I notice my terrible usage of words and grammar, but it will be certainly fixed soon if my growth in English proficiency will keep following the current trend.</p>
<p>The referee doesn’t have to be your guidance teacher. Especially if they don’t know you so well. Another teacher who knows you and your academic ability better is fine, too. However, your own school might have rules about who can write them. Check this first if you’re considering asking someone else.</p>
