Hi I am an international student and I am planning to major in Political Science. I am applying to McGill University.

  1. Do you think it's wise if I take up US history and World History both on the same day, Dec 5th 2016. Any suggestions? I suck at math and sciences and it seems this is the only way for me. Plus, I am running out of time to do it separately.
  2. I will be away in Tanzania for 3 months and on January 21st 2017, I will be taking my SAT l. According to the site, results will only be out Feb 23 but I will already be away as I am leaving 12th of Feb. I was wondering is there a way whereby my results can be sent automatically to the UNI of my choice without me doing it manually online? If that make sense as I have 0 internet access and by the time I get back, I would have missed the submission deadline of McGill.

Please no harsh comments as I am not that familiar with how SAT works. Do kindly advise. Thank you.

SATs allow you to send results directly to four colleges. They get the scores at the same time you do.

My kids did three SAT subject tests in one sitting without any problems. They are only an hour each. As long as you know the material it shouldn’t be an issue.

Can you take the SAT I in November? That would probably be less stressful than wondering about your scores when you are abroad with no internet.

You can take up to 3 SAT II subject tests in one sitting, no problem.
