Getting into Oxford?

<p>You should try to break a 1400, but it’s not necessary. (People have gotten in with as low as 1210) However, I’ve been told that ALL SAT II’s should be 700+. (You should take atleast 3)</p>

<p>I’m applying to Modern History and English this year. Seeing as we’re both Americans interested in the same subject, it might be a good idea to start a correspondence. (And you can learn from my mistakes when I get rejected later this month.) I just had an interview last November 9th in New York.</p>

<p>The deadline is October 15th for the British, but October 1st for Americans. You should seriously have thoroughly looked over the website and requested Prospectus by now. As a person applying to a foreign school, a message board should not be your first source of information. (And if you have, then sorry for the reprimand.)</p>

<p>Anyway, you should call them up directly. The Admissions office responds rather promptly to email, but it wouldn’t be a good idea to annoy them with an extra long message (because your dilemma does require a lot of time to explain.) I’m not sure if the UK has homeschooling, so if they don’t understand it, give evidence that it is a valid educational system. Give proof of your SAT I & II scores, because they don’t really require a transcript for American students. And unless they’re relevent to your chosen subject, your extra-curriculars don’t matter either.</p>

<p>Good luck to you.</p>
