I'm from the UK. Dream school is Yale! Applying EA in November/December.

Not done the SAT yet, I'm hoping to do it in June along with the Literature SAT II, then in October do two more, so I have the summer to learn the US/World History stuff and get up to speed on my French.

Hey tetrisfan! I remember you from when I first started reading this board. Glad to have you in the 2014 club!

Yale and Brown seem to be rather popular, eh?

I'd personally prefer to go to an American university rather than a UK one, because the financial aid is practically non-existent here. Also, there are so many great colleges in America, whereas here we've only got Oxbridge, Warwick, LSE, and University College. Oh well :/.

P.S. I forgot to add Dartmouth and Amherst to the list of colleges I'm applying to. Looks like we'll both be vying for spots at Yale, Dartmouth, and Williams, then .

Wow, you're applying to so many! You did know that there's a fee of around $70 per uni right? I mean, I was thinking of applying to like 10 - until I realised it would cost $700!!

I want to go to American uni so much! I'm terrified that I won't get in anywhere though, especially as there seems to be a huge amount of competition from other internationals..
