Ahh hihi everyone, I'm an American as well.
Except I'm obviously not nearly as prepared as most of you- I haven't written my personal statement yet. But I plan on working on it this week, and hopefully finishing it this weekend. Then hm. Yes! And I still need recs.
Ah well.
I'm looking to apply to Edinburgh and UCL for Scandinavian Studies - Norwegian (
), and maybe Scandi/Linguistics for Edinburgh. I'm not quite sure yet, and I will also be applying to a handful of US schools that offer SS.
Buuut, I'm a bit worried. Should I apply for the foundation year for UCL? I have a 2170 (740 CR/710 M/710 W) in the SAT (retaking it soon, hoping to make closer to a 2300) and a 5/5/5 (Euro History, US history, Eng Lang) for AP exams last year. But don't they prefer 4 AP's? I'm taking like 4 or 5 more AP tests this may, but AGH. Yea. Maybe I should do Scandinavian Studies and History.
Oh right.
Also, do you guys think I should submit a Subject test for French?
Not sure.
Agh.
Alright.
Nice to know I'm not alone!
