I have been studiying in the American curriculum and was just wondering : Do you have to do the SAT even if you are planning on studiying in the united kingdom?

Ok, here's the deal: UK Universities undergraduate admissions require that you have 13 years of education (not 12 like in the states) and A-levels. For more information about A-levels, see this link: http://www.macquil.com/rankingstests.php

Now, most UK universities require American or American educated students to present SAT I and SAT II (3 subjects) scores instead of A-level exams. In addition, most students wanting to apply to universities such as Oxford and Cambridge take Advanced Placement tests to make up for the 13th year of education that UK universities require. Other universities may or may not require AP tests.

Check with the UK university of your choice for more information about international admissions. Good Luck!
