Hi people ! I just registered for SAT Jan 28th next year, and 've bout 2 months to prepare. Any can share some experience of it ?

One thing I'm not sure is I will be 21y.o next year, is this any extra procedure for that ( International freshman applicant for 21y.o )? Ofcos, I'll submit my scores after I done the exam. I can apply sep intake only sadly cos I need to earn sufficient fund before going. And tuition fee is definitely a dead end cos my parents will not

For instance docs need for coll in NY :
1. Application
2. Official high school transcript ( Suppose is SPM Certificate, some will request to be in ENGLISH how then ? )
3. Test scores ( SAT or ACT )
4. Non-refundable $65 application processing fee ( I notice that most unis opt for non-refundable
5. Essay (Optional)
6. Personal statement / Letters of recommendation (Optional) ( Is this going to help ? )
7. Further information & recommended reading

8. My question, some unis will need secondary school letter from teacher but I left for years and I don't think my teacher even remember me. Can skip right ?

How can I explain to the official, if my high school dun issue this kinda letter ?

And, where to translate the spm cert cos I never do before, commissioner oath ?

I try to beg around, maybe i can get someone high post, definitely related with my undergrad couse ( his job ).


Statement C - my cousin, who just back from US, advice me to take local scholarship ( I don't have money, I will consider to take local loan) . Is that able to to prove I've ability to to stay in US for a year ?

Any SAT Jan 28th candidates ? Let's talk, my average score is about 1400, how can I improve ? All my math skills rust, I didn't study after almost a year
