I will definitely check them out. I knew that there were some extra costs with living out-of-state, but I would have never imagined that complications could get to this degree. I will research more about the intensive English program, it seems very attractive to me.
Would you mind telling where you know Miami Dade College from? After a very typical superficial “Top Florida Community Colleges” I could not find them in any ranking.

I believe that taking the test or even studying for it is a poor choice at the moment. Ill give you some reasons:
One: I looks like SAT/ACT will be irrelevant. The universities that I plan to go to do not consider these scores since I’m transferring from a CC
Two: I will do poorly in the math section because I’m not used to the format. I am used to doing very difficult exercises in a long period of time, not easy ones quickly without even thinking. I would not only take hundreds of hours to adapt to the new style, but also take even more thousands reading the books to get familiar with the patterns and exercises.
Three: My English is terrible. I will score poorly in all sections besides math.
Four: If it ends up being crucial I will study for it. Preparation for the exam takes time, and I think that this time would be better spent learning English
But hey, I may be 100% wrong. Take everything that I say with a grain of salt.
