SAT and ACT are standardised tests which students need to take if they are planning to study in the US. Not all universities require SAT/ACT. You can take the SAT or ACT by creating an account on the respective website Collegeboard.org for SAT and ACT.org for ACT.

I think they are providing only post graduation in business management. You should check the website of the University for different courses and their eligibility criteria for future preparation.

Hi,
Keeping aside your academic grades if your overall profile is not impressive then I am afraid chances are poor. Extra curricular activities which can be in the form of voluntary work, project work, sports, etc., are a must. Also, why do you want to take both SAT and GMAT? SAT is for admissions into UG programs while GMAT for MBA. You should decide what to study first, check the admission requirements on university websites and have a fair idea of what is required and what is not.
Good luck.
