It is not necessary that applicants upload their photos right in the first go of SAT registration. Applicants can come back after paying for the SAT exam registration and still upload their headshot photos. Also they must note, that they must upload their photo at least five days before the actual exam date, following the phot requirements, else they will not be able to give the exam.

Uploading your recent photo is essential before you sit for the main SAT exam. The definition of a good photo as per College Board is as follows:

  • The image must be in any of these formats - .jpg, .gif, or .png.
  • You must be recognizable in the photo you upload, basically the headshot must be clear.
  • The photo should not be too dark or too light.
  • Ensure that the eyes are open and not closed.
  • Photo must be natural and must not be altered using any tool.
  • Finally, the image must include only you and nobody else.

If these instructions are not followed, then you may not be allowed to appear for the test.

The Pearson PLC Group has pioneered the AI scoring when it comes to international English tests. It uses sophisticated AI algorithms, based on the 100s and 1000s of real test responses. This makes the PTE test scoring accurate, and free of any bias and human errors (except for a few, where human scoring is done).

No, a GRE score is not required to enter to master's programme in Belgium. Instead, the universities in Belgium prioritize basic eligibility, including a bachelor's degree from a recognised university, and additional entry requirements. Those requirements comprise a letter of recommendation, a motivation letter, or a statement of purpose, a CV/resume, English language requirements, and more.
