A 2210 on the SAT (750 Critical Reading, 690 Math, 770 Writing)
•
The following scores on the following SAT subject tests: 800 in Literature, 740 in Math II, 740 in World History.
•
A 5 on the AP U.S. Government and Politics exam
•
Although I don't yet have the scores for these, I took the following AP tests in May and feel that I did fairly well on them: Art History, Calculus BC, English Language and Composition, Macroeconomics, Microeconomics & World History
•
I'm planning on taking the following AP courses senior year: English Literature and Composition, European History, Comparative Government & Biology
1.
How do I send/verify my SAT and AP scores with Oxford? I understand that there is a slot on UCAS where you can fill in your scores, however how can they verify that? There is no code on the college board to send my SAT or AP scores to Oxford so I'm not sure how they would know that I actually did how I say I did.
2.
I know that the UCAS deadline is October 15th, however I'm retaking the SAT on October 5th (to be more competitive for merit financial aid awards for U.S. schools) - would Oxford accept those scores, as many American universities do for early deadlines, even though they would come out after the deadline?
3.
Everything that I've read about the TSA test says that it's administered by your school and that the school has to enroll you to take the test. Is this true also for international PPE applicants? I haven't read anything about it for U.S./international students and I'm unsure as to whether that's how it works for me as well. ALSO: Has anyone here taken the TSA and can offer any thoughts/advice on it?
4.
I know that when you're admitted to UK universities you're given a conditional acceptance based on how well you do on your A-levels. What would my offer be conditional on? My high school course grades? The results of my AP tests taken senior year, even though I'll already have ample AP qualifications?

Good question. Up until now I've just gone on what's been on the student's form. I guess we just trust you?

Pass. Contact admissions: https://uni-of-oxford.custhelp.com/app/home/p/27/
3.
There are four testing centers in the US http://www.admissionstestingservice.org/find-a-centre/. Your admissions tutor should register you for this.

This will depend on the college and subject tutors. You may be given an unconditional.
