question for Americans

I'm applying to some schools in Scotland (include University of Edin. and University of St. Andrews)...any idea what kind of GPA or SAT scores they want???? all the information I can find is in british lingo....so it's been confusing.

I applied to St Andrews using the direct application for Americans/Canadians, and was accepted with a 2140 SAT, a 750 on US History SATII and a 640 on Lit SATII. I also had a 4 on AP Gov and AP US History. My school has a weird GPA calculation, so my gpa wouldn't make sense, but i'm in the top 10% of my class if that helps.

I was accepted to St. Andrews with a 2150 SAT, 3.9 unweighted GPA with honors and APs, a literature 640 score, no AP exam scores, and some additional writing samples to prove that, no I'm not stupid and can actually write. I think my letters of recommendation may have helped as my teachers seem to really like me.

I was accepted to both St Andrews and Edinburgh for History :smile:

I had an 2080 SAT score, 660 in US History, 750 in Literature and a 5 in AP Pyschology. My grades were nothing special, but my school doesn't calculate GPA so I'm not sure exactly what it is.
