How long does it take to study for the SATs?

Skip A levels and take SAT instead?

  • I'm a JC1 student in Singapore, preparing to take the A levels next year. I'm wondering if it is fine to skip the A levels and just take SAT, as I'm not really keen to study in the UK. Which countries accept SAT? I would appreciate it if someone could guide me in this as I'm quite lost. It is as if A levels is useless for me as few schools in the States accept A levels as their entry requirements, and even if they did, I will still have to take SATs. So is it a waste of time, 2 years to be exact, if I take the A levels, and at the same time SAT? I find JC life quite demanding and I don't have any extra time to study for the SAT at all. So what if I quit school and study for the SAT at home, take the test and apply for university? I need help! Really thank the person who could help me in this matter. :D

    Uhh, I really doubt that's a wise idea. It's much better to have your country's required pre-U qualifications PLUS the SATs. Not just the SATs. SATs are definitely not worth staying at home and studying for; most of my friends just spend over a month doing practice questions before going for the SATs. They're not that hard. And no, O-levels do not help in overseas university admissions. Please continue on your path to A-levels and take your SATs as well. Good luck! :))

For study in a US college or university, you need to complete high school study in your country, submit your high school transcript, and the SAT score(s) if it is required. Level A courses are for UK, so you do not need to take them if you plan to study in US.
