Yeah, you'll probs wanna prepare for the SATs for several months as it can take some time to get used to the types of questions they give - and you really wanna aim for the top marks in the SATs since it's so competitive.

And i hear the amount of paperwork takes quite a while since there's just loads of it..

Long.

LONG.

Depending on how many unis you apply to, writing amazing essays can take ages. It takes much longer going from good to amazing.
Depends on the college you are applying for. Usually, application deadlines are in December and decisions are given April/May.
