Hi Hemani,
Universities abroad have their SET deadlines and application rounds. Depending on the university you have to apply by the deadlines. Usually if you are applying to USA admission rounds starts opening from Aug onwards and you can start classes only from the following year. Its not like you apply in July and start classes from Aug same year. One year is required for the entire application process.

Hi,
If the program you are applying to requires these tests then certainly you must prepare. Considering Harvard and Oxford, remember they will evaluate your overall profile and you must be an allrounder, mere taking these tests alone won't help. Perhaps you can share your desired program of study for better guidance.

It is best to start your preparations from now. Get help from a good coaching institute and follow college board books on SAT. It will help.
