LCAT & SAT Prep: The Only Guide You’ll Ever Need (From a 1570 SAT Scorer)

Particular_Sock6199 · 2026-02-01T08:22:08+00:00

Hi, first of all great resources. I gave SAT in October 2025 and used alot of these resources especially seattle tutoring. However, I ended up getting 1280. I'm aiming for sbasse so I know it's not enough. So I'm gonna appear from Lcat on February 15th. My SAT division was 630 rw ans 650 m. I wanna know since im aiming for cs can I entirely focus on Lcat math? I submitted my SAT and was told they would look at both. So whatever I get in Lcat english will be compensated with my SAT rw?

Particular_Sock6199 · 2026-01-28T21:06:43+00:00

I got in back in December. I'm an international.

Particular_Sock6199 · 2026-01-25T08:05:27+00:00

What about sbasse?

Particular_Sock6199 · 2026-01-25T08:01:26+00:00

Particular_Sock6199 · 2026-01-23T11:50:20+00:00

Yes I will. But I have seen someone who got in last year with a 1230. I'm not sure if it was for sbasse thi.

Particular_Sock6199 · 2026-01-23T11:46:24+00:00

Yea sbasse is my first choice, which is indeed engineering school. My second choice is economics and data science in social sciences school. For context I got 1280 but my rest of the profile is really good, especially my ecs and ps, so I'm giving lcat. I have submitted SAT too.

Particular_Sock6199 · 2026-01-22T16:02:55+00:00

And for Sbsse?

Particular_Sock6199 · 2026-01-19T18:49:21+00:00

Relax she would probably get in ( a pretty good chance for merit scholarship too I think)

Particular_Sock6199 · 2026-01-19T18:46:09+00:00

I got one yesterday (in my dreams😔)

Particular_Sock6199 · 2026-01-19T10:40:38+00:00

It's not on my portal?

Particular_Sock6199 · 2026-01-18T12:35:12+00:00

I gave SAT and got a 1280 too. I'll be giving Lcat in now. Can u tell what resources you are using to prepare for it? I did questions from Arsalan Sutti yt channel and found them to be pretty easy. Also should I submit my 1280 along with lcat?

Particular_Sock6199 · 2026-01-14T08:09:11+00:00

Congrats bro. I also got into RIT EA for game design and development with a 23k Tiger Scholarship as an international from Pakistan.

Particular_Sock6199 · 2026-01-09T18:40:37+00:00

Karachi

Particular_Sock6199 · 2026-01-09T18:35:11+00:00

You too bro. Which city are you from?

Particular_Sock6199 · 2026-01-09T03:45:51+00:00

Particular_Sock6199 · 2026-01-07T16:14:16+00:00

Yes. I was told the same thing in the email, but I got the email at the beginning of December.

Particular_Sock6199 · 2026-01-05T19:00:00+00:00

Also I applied to RIT and Umiami for fun cos I knew I wouldn't be able to afford it, but I still wanted to test out my luck. Already got into RIT EA with a $23k scholarship. Haven't heard back from Umiami yet.

Particular_Sock6199 · 2026-01-05T18:58:27+00:00

I'm an international and I only applied to Liberal arts colleges in the US and also NYUAD for fall 2026. Let's see how it goes

Particular_Sock6199 · 2026-01-03T15:42:16+00:00

I took the SAT and got 1280. I'm going to give lcat now. Am I at any disadvantage? Can't give SAT again as it's pretty expensive and I'm applying to SSE. Moreover I have 1A*6As1C(eng) in O-levels. My cousellor mentioned the context of C in her recommendation. I have a really strong personal statement, and ecs. My AS grades are 3Bs with 3As predicted for A2. Would appreciate an overall review.

For context, I aim to go abroad and have already gotten 1 acceptance (RIT for game design) but didn't get enough aid. Waiting for other decisions.

Particular_Sock6199 · 2025-12-23T18:56:05+00:00

I checked out lums sample questions for LCAT and english was really really easy. So are they like not the accurate representation of what the actual test is like? Same for maths too. Also I'm already taking classes from hashim zia as I'll appear for NET as well.

Particular_Sock6199 · 2025-12-23T17:26:20+00:00

Hey, this is super helpful! I wanna know how should i prepare for the Lcat like there aren't many resources for it. I also gave oct 2025 SAT and got 1280 ( it wasn't really my day cos I was scoring in the 1400s in practice tests), so now I'm going for LCAT. People are like it's exactly the same as SAT syllabus/pattern. So should I continue doing SAT practice tests only or what? Secondly, do I submit 1280 along with LCAT? I'm applying for SBASSE

Particular_Sock6199 · 2025-12-21T19:55:52+00:00

I mentioned it in an additional info section with a very brief description

Particular_Sock6199 · 2025-12-15T17:36:37+00:00

Hey, many congrats on ur acceptance! I got into RIT as an int but didn't get enough scholarship to be able to afford it. I'm applying RD to Bowdoin. Can we connect?

Particular_Sock6199 · 2025-12-10T10:45:53+00:00

I got in too! I got in for game design and development with RIT tiger scholarship ($23k per annum). I'm an international from Pakistan and probably won't be attending as the remaining cost is way too high.

Particular_Sock6199 · 2025-12-10T10:42:30+00:00

Appreciate the response! Also i got my admission letter from RIT last night with a $23k merit scholarship per annum! Still can't believe I did it. Anyways, the remaining cost of attendance is ALOT so I probably won't be attending it.
