Hello everyone,

English:82
Maths:92
Physical Education:82
I have better marks in my Pre Boards in Physics and Chemistry (in 70’s) but lower in Maths Now I am planning to give CBSE improvement exam and now I am determined to score 90+ in all subjects.
My Previous History
9th Grade: 8.6 CGPA
10th Grade: 8.6 CGPA
11th Grade: 60% (yes it went downhill I had problems in my school and family)
I am planning to apply to average to great colleges in USA,Canada and Australia.Do universities accept CBSE improvement exams and If I score great what would be the impact.One of my friends got admitted in NYU he had a conditional letter stating him to score higher than 95% can I get a conditional letter on basis of CBSE improvement examination.
My Examination scores (taken later last year took this decision late)
SAT Super Scored :1500
ACT planned :September( getting 31 right now )
SAT Subject Test: October
