Hi Shivraj, You are required to report your SAT scores to universities of your choice, you have to select the universities during your test. The scores will be sent automatically to the universities by College Board. Universities have their own methods of selecting students thereafter which is on a merit-based. They will compare all the student profiles and select.
The process of admission is also online, you should visit some university website and you will find all these details.

Hi,
How you prepare for the exam will depend on your own calibre, there is no perfect answer since every student has his or her own calibre, timelines, etc. It may take a couple of weeks or may be months to prepare. One of the best way is to have your basics and fundamentals clear, take a lot of practice tests to understand the areas which need improvement, revise accordingly, a number of practice tests are available online on the college board website. Start working on your maths, memorize basic formulaes, expand your vocabulary knowledge, if needed take an external coaching help. Also don't forget to relax and do some stress busting

Hello Prakhar, a score of around 1400 is a safe one. If you are aspiring for an university in USA, you better build a strong all rounded profile and also extracurricular activities are very important. They don't prefer boring students. Sports, voluntary work, arts and cultural activities, research and project works must be demonstrated.

Hello Nikhil,
You have not mentioned admission in undergraduate or PG course after you finish graduation in India. Scholarships are not the way of life in USA. Work while you learn is the norm. There will be plenty of opportunities for this.

Hi. It is an acceptable score for average ranking universities not a good score for top ones but again if you are applying to US this score can be accepted by top ones too if your overall profile is very strong.
