<p>@mayisha- as far as i knw, u will need trancripts of both schools. u will need the past four years records.</p>
<p>Yup hopeless is right</p>
<p>2 sets of Transcripts, 2 sets of Secondary School Reports and International Supplements and 2 counselor recommendations.</p>
<p>No you cannot attach any doc in a message but if you pm me your email id I can mail it to you. Your wish.</p>
<p>a real thanks to you all guys.</p>
<p>…and sorry, but i still have a question…</p>
<p>acc. to collegeboard, the test fees for sat reasoning test in india is:
$49(registration)+$29(int’l charge)+$24(for india and pak only)=$102
i understand this part, but the subject tests…</p>
<p>test fees for sat subject tests is:
$22(registration)+$29(int’l charge)+$24(for india and pak only)=$75
then it says add $22 for language+listening tests and $11 for other subject tests.</p>
<p>so my question is…suppose i give 3 subject tests then my total fees would be $75 + 3x$11
this or would it be 3x($75 + $11) ??</p>
<p>i know this is a stupid question, but the website says the $75 is for one registration only, so it got me all confused. please help me guys. my parents arent millionaires and i need to know the cost incurred in the tests beforehand. @DarthSpawnus has already helped me very much, but this one i need to know too. </p>
<p>thank you.</p>
<p>75+3 x 11= $ 108</p>
<p>thats just great…now i gotta go beg there too … the U.S better be worth all this! have u guys invited ur counselors and teachers yet? Is there any way to check whether they’ve received commonapp’s mail and have started workin on it?</p>
<p>Nope don’t do it online Mayisha</p>
<p>The student’s part of the common application and all additional supplement must be sent via online method.</p>
<p>The transcripts and O and A Level results go with Secondary School Report and Recommendation goes with Teacher’s Form. These docs must be filled on paper and sent via DHL/Fedex etc. Make sure the transcripts and recommendations bear the school’s letterhead and all pages of the forms, transcripts and recommendation must be attested by the school.</p>
<p>Shoot! But I’ve already sent them invitations! My private tutor works at CGS, n he was the one who asked me to go on with the online method…n it’s much better that way, isn’t it? You never know how long Fedex’s gonna take…oh n btw, thanx a ton for the samples; very few people are so true to their word these days:)</p>
<p>No problem. BTW don’t use that ID for college application. Use an id that sounds more formal 
</p>
<p>I think recommendations can be sent online …I don’t about transcripts though. Most seniors I know all applied by this method and it worked for them. Online is of course the best method.</p>
<p>If you send it via DHL it will take only 3 days to reach. However if you do send it via DHL then try to send it before Christmas.</p>
<p>LOL…i know the id sounds stupid, but it’s a relic from when I was a kid :)…i had a question regarding the A’Level transcript: it’s gonna be the same, right? instead of the subjects, we just write the units, like Bio 1, Bio 2 etc…AS units for Class XI, n A2 for Class XII… do tell me if I have it wrong</p>
<p>My high school administration just writes the subject name in the transcript- they don’t specify units taken so I think it should be something like AS Level Math AS Level Bio AS Level Chem and then A Level Math A Level Bio and A Level Chem with the corresponding grades.</p>
<p>The reasoning is at the end of the day, unis are going to see the Edexcel/CIE certificate in the final report which only lists the grades by subject and not by individual units taken.</p>
<p>Ok, thanks alot DarthSpawnus! Really appreciate it…btw, ur school doesn’t have a college counselor either, does it? Um assigning my class teacher as my counselor, as he has all my reports and stuff…is that ok? who r u putting up? n really sorry for being such a nag :(</p>
<p>Umm I think its better if you ask all these questions. A lot of potential applicants can find a lot of info this way. That is why this thread exists. </p>
<p>In my school, the school administration runs these things. They make all the transcripts and recommendations while the Principal basically reviews and signs the stuff. I think its best if your school’s principal signs the transcripts and counselor recommendation. Your class teacher at best can give the teacher’s recommendation.</p>
<p>My updates:</p>
<p>1.struggling with SAT 2.
2.praying 4 SAT 1.
3.having nightmares & daymares(if sumthing like that really exists,lol) about deadlines.</p>
<p>Go to sparknotes.com
That has some pretty cool stuff like revision notes and free practice test</p>
<p>And when I get nervous I eat a lot :eek:</p>
<p>lol, when i was typing the stuff over here,sparknotes was open on my other tab.</p>
<p>& yeah when i am nervous i eat, sleep, & watch tv a lot.</p>
<p>so i can multitask when i am nervous! wow, what a realization!</p>
<p>@DarthSpawnus-on a more serious note, r u sending the colleges copies of ur ECA certificates? in the arts supplements section, they say, “Please do not send us copies of awards or certificates.” why? also, although i have actively participated in school clubs, i wont b able to manage certificates from school since they ‘require’ me to complete two years of club service.
also, i am thinking of sending supplements( i have both national & international recognition) but i feel that these can just work against me.confused…</p>
<p>You are sending an art supplement as well? Me too!
Are you a painter? 
</p>
<p>I have decided to write and explain about the major awards only in my art supplement and attach a CD containing around 10-15 high quality images. Plus my counselor recommendation already stated my art related activities. So I think I don’t need to send certificates. More certificates= more paper they have to process so that is why colleges ask you not to send any additional paper materials. </p>
<p>Just attach an award list and make sure your counselor/teacher/principal talks about them in their recommendation.</p>
<p>no DarthSpawnus, I am not a painter. some other category…</p>
<p>so basically u will prepare a resume,ryt? & r u using the additional info on common app to highlight them? my category of submission has some serious drawbacks…so i m not confident about risking it!</p>
<p>Oh ok :)</p>
<p>Thats what I am confused about as well. I think its better to use the additional space in Common App. Art resumes are strictly speaking supplementary so I feel its safer if I put it along with Common App.</p>
<p>Don’t worry about art supplement. Just send your best works :)</p>
<p>1 really irrelevant question: hows ur mental state ryt now? I am completely losing my head. I dont see light anywhere, not even at the end of the tunnel! pessimism has taken full control over me…:(</p>
