SAT scores
I got 1420 (710 in each section), which is the 95th percentile for math and 96th percentile for verbal. Not very satisfactory.
I thought I would need the SAT for a last-ditch effort at an American college application, but I have not yet been able to find a US undergraduate program that meets European standards. They're all four-year affairs where the first two years are just general education and proper specialization does not come before the third year. Also, I have not been able to find any schools that I like that will grant sophomore status on the basis of an IB diploma. Which means that I would actually have to be there for all four years.
The stories of smart British kids — 10 A* GCSEs smart — going to the US on a scholarship are a bit amazing, because as far as I can see there are no undergraduate programs there that match the standards of the best British universities. Unless she got very special treatment, like a full scholarship and completion of the BS in 2½ years.

1420 is "not very satisfactory"? Don't make me sick, Guan. :-P And the US University system is exactly why I'm going to England for school. The Uni system almost everywhere makes me sick, but less so in the UK.

I really don't think it is modest for you to post your SAT scores on the net and then say that they are not good when you know they are.
Just who are you trying to impress?
