Hi,
I can talk for IELTS. In my opinion, give it a good 3 months preparation time. Do a regular practice and be consistent. You can actually clear on your own.
1. Enroll in a lot of free courses online like on future learn. There are so many websites like IELTS buddy, IELTS advantage, IELTS Liz etc. to get tips and tricks. There are you tube videos too for visual demonstration.
2. Get Barron's and Official IELTS Cambridge books, I personally think they are very good. Follow them regularly and solve all papers.

Hi Hemani,
Universities abroad have their SET deadlines and application rounds. Depending on the university you have to apply by the deadlines. Usually if you are applying to USA admission rounds starts opening from Aug onwards and you can start classes only from the following year. Its not like you apply in July and start classes from Aug same year. One year is required for the entire application process.

Hi,
If the program you are applying to requires these tests then certainly you must prepare. Considering Harvard and Oxford, remember they will evaluate your overall profile and you must be an allrounder, mere taking these tests alone won't help. Perhaps you can share your desired program of study for better guidance.

It is best to start your preparations from now. Get help from a good coaching institute and follow college board books on SAT. It will help.

Hi Pratiksha,
If your English is not strong plus if you are planning to study abroad I will strongly advice you to improve your English communication skills. How will you converse with students and how will you sustain the English speaking environment if you are not well-versed with the language of communication. Nevertheless you will need an all-rounded good performance in your test to pass the TOEFL decently.

TOEFL is basically an English exam to go for abroad and to pursue higher education courses I can suggest you can go for coaching institute which is the best institute in Bangalore which gives perfect coaching IMS is the best coaching center to pursue the passing marks for this exam is 6 to 6.5 for total 9 marks so the test basically comprise of listening , hearing and writing and a basis of the type of short interview questions all the best hope you can attend this exam very well and it is easy to attend this exam.
