<p>I'm a Scottish student who just finished my final year at school and hope to go and study in America. I would want to study accounting and economics(if that's possible). </p>
<p>I know my grades aren't in GPA but in my higher's I achieved AAAAB in math, computing, accounting, physics and english. I then went on to sit accounting and math at advanced higher achieving an A and B.
I recently sat some practice SAT's, getting 2350 800M, 770CR, 780W.
Would anyone be able to help me out with any business colleges that would have a chance of accepting me?</p>
<p>University of Virginia, Duke University (Superb economics, no accounting), University of Michigan, University of Illinois - Urbana Champaign (One of the best accounting schools in the country). </p>
<p>Something to note: for accounting, it really doesn’t matter what school you go to, so long as that school is AACSB accredited, however, higher tiered schools tend to not have that quality. But, with scores and an SAT like that, you really should be looking at far higher tiered schools than what I listed. So start looking at schools like University of Chicago, Northwestern, Harvard, Stanford, University of Pennsylvania, Yale, etc. All of those schools have either great business or great economics. </p>
<p>Plus, being from Scotland, ivy league schools would look very favorably onto you, assuming you have some decent extracurriculars. I know someone from Israel who had about the same stats as you who is currently at Harvard. Good luck! And cast a wide net, you actually have the opportunity to go to some of these schools.</p>
<p>Thanks very much for all the information, means a lot. What sort of EC’s would colleges be looking for, because I have quite a diverse set</p>
