Do I need the SAT/ACT, AP and more for my UK application?

​Hosted by the founder of GradFord — who received offers from Oxford, Cambridge, UCL and Imperial.

​If you're applying to UK universities from an international curriculum — IB, IGCSE, CBSE, or ICSE — you've probably wondered whether sitting extra tests like the SAT, ACT, or AP exams gives you an edge.

​The honest answer is: it depends entirely on which university, which course, and how strong your existing profile is.

​In this free 60-minute session, we'll break down:

• ​Which tests UK universities actually pay attention to — and which ones won't move the needle

• ​How SAT, ACT, and AP scores are viewed at Oxford, Cambridge, UCL, Imperial, LSE and others

• ​When sitting extra tests genuinely strengthens an application versus wastes valuable preparation time

• ​What admissions tests mean for your chances

• ​How to allocate your time if you're balancing board exams, A-levels or IB alongside a UK application

​There will be a live Q&A at the end. Bring your specific situation — course, curriculum, target universities — and get a direct answer.

​Free. Live. Limited spots.
