Hi Suyash,
There will be a minimum effect since you have a strong profile overall. However, this will depend on the selectivity standard of the universities and the kind of profiles applying that is your competitors. Your SOP and LORS will also be taken into account.
Good luck.

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.

Hello,
Yes, it is absolutely easy and possible to appear in SAT for a PCB student as the Quant or Maths which is there is an extension of what you study in class 6,7,8,9 or 10th. While in India a good number of students do not take Maths in class 11 and 12th, they may still do SAT well by practising Maths. So, I assure you that it would not be much difficult for you either.

Hi Swapnil,
I believe you are enquiring about scholarships. If yes, then please know that there is a difference between fellowship and scholarship. Be careful with the terminologies when you are applying abroad. Scholarships are on merit-basis, a high SAT or ACT score will increase your chances, however, not a guarantee. You must be a brilliant student overall.

Hi Kunal,
Many universities like NITs, DTU, IIITH, Ashoka University, BITS Pilani, Jindal etc take admission through SAT but mainly SAT is considered if you are an NRI or a foreign citizen. Check with the universities if they will accept SAT for Indian students. Also find out about scheme called DASA. You can also check here:
