2. Arrangement of study time. You are right to start studying sat now. Regarding the study time and examination arrangement, my advice to you is: from now on, learn the sat, and by next year's 65438+ 10, you must increase your vocabulary to 8000 and finish all the og of the sat. After 65438+ 10 next year, I will start to do real questions when I come back from the winter vacation, and I will do at least 10 sets of real questions before June, and I must understand them. Take the sat in June to test the effect and deficiency of your study, and then come back to prepare for TOEFL. Because you already have the sat as the foundation, it will be relatively easy to prepare for TOEFL. The main task is TOEFL tpo, with more than 20 sets of questions, and each set of questions should be thoroughly understood, especially the listening part. Because reading sat is much more difficult than TOEFL, it should not be a problem for you to cope with TOEFL reading and writing at this time. This composition should be revised by the teacher. Write at least 5 articles and ask the teacher to correct them. Take the TOEFL test in August to see how the results are. The goal of TOEFL should be above 100. If not, let's see what the problem is.
Regardless of the TOEFL score in August, you should continue to study the sat after the exam, and take the exam again in June at 5438+ 10, and you must get the best score this time. Strive for more than 2000. If you want to apply for a prestigious school, you must pay at least 2200. Then you can decide whether to study TOEFL or sat2 according to your TOEFL score. If the TOEFL score is above 80 at this time and your target school is not top20, you can prepare sat2 for 1 month, and then take sat2 for 1 1 month.
3. Scholarship has nothing to do with the major you are applying for, nor does it say which major is easier to apply for a scholarship. The most important thing is your grades and application materials. After applying, if you want to reduce the financial burden on your family, you can start studying ap, and then take the ap exam on 20 13, the year you enter the university, in May. Social practice and letters of recommendation will not directly improve your chances of applying for scholarships, but depend on what you have done specifically, which shows how much your ability or thought has been improved.
I suggest you give up the college entrance examination. Although you can continue to take the sat in the second year, it is not good for you if you take it too many times, because in the eyes of American university admissions officers, a student who takes the sat too many times will think that you have been working hard for the exam all day and neglected more important things.
You can keep asking questions.
