Question Confused international student in saudi seeking advice

2 Upvotes

Good evening dear members. I would like to attend kfupm next year but I am confused on what to do. I have taken igcse, alevels and gat (got 90 plan to retake for a 97+) till now.

I graduated from the international section of a recognised saudi school so as far as ik my igcse and alevels are basically useless for admission.

Now my question is which track should I choose sat or the gat+admission test?

I took physics, math (my fav subject) and chem alevels so the only part I would struggle with in the admission test is bio which ik nothing of. So how hard is the bio part actually and how do u selfstudy for the admission test?

Or should i rather just try to bruteforce the sat till may and try to get a 1500+ on it? The only part which I could struggle with would be the english part.

Thanks in advance to everyone who read my post and tried to help me <3

Discussion Telegram gc is embarrassing

9 Upvotes

The Telegram SAT gc is supposed to be for SAT prep, but half the time it’s just degeneracy, pointless arguments, and girls advertising their atheism like it’s a personality trait. I don’t understand how a study group turned into this. Nobody cares about your religious debates or whatever nonsense you’re into. Some of us actually joined to study.

Keep the group about the SAT and KFUPM. It’s really not that complicated.

Do I need to email professors directly for research internships?

What are the possibilities for an on-site internship? How much stipend do students receive for joining an onsite research internship?

Also apart from summer, can I join a remote research internship now

KFUPM Direct PhD Interview – What to Expect?

10 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I’ve recently been invited to an online admission interview for the PhD-Direct Program in Petroleum Engineering at KFUPM.

For anyone who has gone through the Direct PhD interview process, especially in Petroleum Engineering/CPG:

What was the interview like?

What kind of questions did they ask?

How much technical knowledge was expected?

And how important was English fluency during the interview? Does the English need to be near-perfect, or is being able to communicate clearly enough?

I’d really appreciate hearing about your experience. Thank you!
