I want to pursue BSc. Maths and have SAT 1320, strong extracurriculars. What could be a possible application strategy? And which universities should I aim for, provided i have 90 percentage on my 10th and 95 percentage on my 12th and few extracurriculars? Also, do I need to give AP exams and TOEFL?
Your academic record is definitely strong. While not always mandatory, AP exams can significantly boost your application and potentially earn you college credits. TOEFL is usually required for international students.
There are a lot of universities with strong mathematics department, some which are:
- UK: University of Cambridge, University of Oxford, Imperial College London, University of Warwick
- US: MIT, Harvard, University of Michigan, University of California (Berkeley, Los Angeles)
And also remember to research each university’s specific requirement. Some may prioritize standardized tests, while others may place more emphasis on your academic record and extracurriculars.
Thanks for the advice! I’ll definitely start researching these universities and look into the specific requirements for each. Anything else do I need look out for ?
