Damn right. Being an international student, it was very hard for me to get an average verbal score in the sat. When I first began studing for the SAT i felt hopeless, it was so god damn hard. It was after a year of constant studying that I managed to get an average reading score. I nailed the math of course.

Hello,

I'm a brazilian student and I'm 22 years old. When I graduated from High School I didn't know there had been the SAT test. Now, I'm interested in taking this exam. I'd like to know if there is a limited age to do it.

the story of my life : international , good at reading comprehension , SUCK at sentence completion . Really good TOEFL score .

it's devastating that my Math score is in the high 700 and sometimes i get 800 , Writing in the high 700ish , however reading ; i couldn't cross 600 :(

@jaepil I am international student and I have no problem understanding him, while I have a problem with CR and Writing SAT sections. English on the level of everyday talking and internet chatting is pretty easy, but when it comes to florid vocab and grammar you see on SAT, you have to study really hard

[any1020]

i am a student from hong kong and this year i took the PSATs

strangely, i didn't get the highest score for math but for critical reading (97 percentile) and i did get the worst for writing (84 percentile)

and i always thought i sucked at reading comprehension....

I qualify the other requirements also.
