Hi guys, as you know I am in India and gonna repeat my As exams, so now I think I want to go to USA/UK/Canada for As and A level and what are the chances of getting admissions over there, and how much time will it take ? As #i want to go as soon as possible, coz I think I don't have scope in India..

Thanks in advance,

Talking about the SAT;
2300+/2400 is quite difficult to achieve. Out of 10 million students giving the SAT, only 2000 manage to get a perfect score (a probability of 2 x 10^-4)!
Nonetheless it is achievable. American unis require both SAT I and SAT II (for further info. on SAT, do send me a message). UK unis on the other hand do not need SAT. However UK unis give more importance to A Levels as compared to US. SAT I consists of 3 main sections; Critical Reading (English), Writing Skills (English), and a Math Section. The English is of quite a high level, and you might as well require tutions/classes for it (unless you are good at english). Visit the collegeboard website and you will find plenty of info. on SAT.

You can find more info. on this website:
https://www.collegeboard.org/
And don't just jump to conclusions. Think wisely. Decide what you want to do, and make your decision accordingly.

My piece of advice: I would recommend you to retake the AS Levels (if you really believe that you desperately need to retake it) in the Oct/Nov session, and give the SAT in December or January ;)

Getting admitted in UK A Level colleges is pretty easy (That, if you want to go to the international colleges). I applied to several colleges last year and got accepted to all of them (It's not that I'm bright or anything. They're just quite easy, what they want is your money). You have a lot of options, for example like Bellerbys, EF, King's, Concord, etc. But I would really recommend Concord. Their main intake is mostly in September (like other UK schools) But several has January and April intakes as well.

But really, they're hell expensive. Perhaps do you want to consider A Level colleges in Malaysia? They have a lot of them and are great as well. And the best thing is that they are way much much cheaper. Colleges like Taylor's and INTI have a lot of students go to Oxbridge every year (For Taylor's it's around 10 per year). Their intake is September, January, and July.

And by the way, I've never heard of A Level colleges in US or Canada.
