    Applying to international universities
    Hey,
    I've been thinking a lot lately and I think that I want to apply to American Universities. Currently, I am in Year 11, finishing off my GCSEs; I wanted to know if anyone else is thinking of applying or is in the process of applying? Have you taken the admission tests: ATC or SAT? - If so, how was the exam? etc
    Any help or information would be much appreciated - Thanks

    http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/ is also great as a forum site

    I'm in year 10 and I'm applying to US universities, and I'm thinking of taking the SAT in October to get an idea of how well I'll do.
