Hi Nirmal,
It depends on a lot of factors like which university you are applying to, the desired programme, your financial situation, career plans, etc. You know that your academic background is not too competitive, but a very exceptional personal statement, essays and recommendation letters will push your application. Your IELTS is low for an MS course, in fact, you should take TOEFL. If the course you want to do demands another test like GRE, you have to take it. After you have submitted the application, the university will send you the offer letter, it depends on the university totally. You can then apply for the visa only after you

Hi Nima, you can apply, but universities will check why you took the gap and you have to justify the same very nicely. If you had or have work experience its good for your profile. Also, you must take the SAT and TOEFL to pursue Bachelor's degree in USA. Write to some universities in USA and check with them directly. They are very responsive and will guide you.

Hi Prabhleen, SAT is one of the most important requirements if you want to study in the USA, even US citizens must take the SAT so you can sense the competition. However, American universities will take into account your entire profile from academics to extracurriculars, so even if you have a slightly low SAT score and a terrific non-academic profile you will have a chance. Hope you got an idea now.

Dear Harika,
It may take a month or more. The application process ideally should start 6 to 10 months before the intake. If you haven't already kicked off you should hurry up withe further delay.

Hi,
Fall intake is the most preferred intake. The majority of the universities have fall intake which starts from Aug. Also, internships and job opportunities are higher. Schedule your GRE 5 to 8 months before the application deadline.

Preparation tips can be really long and how well you can follow the documented tips will vary from person to person so I will suggest you start with the basics and a mock test of SAT and TOEFL to understand your areas of weakness and strengths. Research firstly on TOEFL and SAT score requirements of various universities. Experts say that the SAT is more in favour of verbally inclined students, so read a lot , learn new words.However this does not indicate the math section is easy so learn short cuts and tricks. Practice is the key. Read textbooks, encyclopaedias, journals and research articles for both TOEFL or SAT. Here are two blog
