I'm interested in pursuing medicine as a career & appeared for SAT (score: 1480). Could you guide me for suitable universities?

I am a US citizen and did my education i.e. Class I-XI from India (I have an OCI card). Apart from the SAT exams, am I required to appear for any other exams e.g. TOEFL? I am interested in pursuing a career in Medicine at a good university in US/Canada. Could you guide me on the same?

Typically, Riga Technical University does not mandatorily require ACT or SAT scores as an admission requirement or a deciding factor. The university generally looks for other factors, which include academic criteria and meeting English language proficiency requirements. Applications are also judged on the basis of their completeness and whether the candidate has submitted all the documents required for the admission process or not. However, if the candidate chooses to submit the ACT or SAT scores for UG admission, the scores could be taken under review.
