When you apply to universities in USA, they ask the score of a standardized test called SAT (Scholastic Aptitude Test). The new SAT pattern has total of 1600 instead of 2400 earlier. The highest composite score for the redesigned SAT is 800+800, or 1600. Your section scores are the individual score

Nishtha Sharma

Yes, a number of US universities have gone test-optional, and several accept applicants with a GPA as low as 2.5–3.0 on a 4.0 scale. A lower GPA can affect scholarship eligibility, so check each university's page for merit-aid cutoffs before applying.

How do I know how many months of SAT prep I need?

Take a full-length practice test first. The gap between that score and your target score determines your prep duration as a rule of thumb. A 100-point improvement typically needs 2-3 months of consistent study.
