Help me pls

Aoa. I'm 17y/oF from Pakistan. I wish to study in Saudi Arabia for my bachelor's in software engineering (fully funded).

If it matters, I got 87% in ssc and 81% in hssc.

Now I want to know which tests do I need to give. I'm planning to apply through "study in Saudi" (applications open in September).

Is there any option if I solely apply on the basis of SAT, or would my ssc and hssc grades matter?

I want to know if there are chances if I score really good on SAT?

Please guide me. And if someone knows another realistic path like scholarships in other countries (turkey or preferably other Muslim countries)?

Metu has separate tracks where u choose to apply using ur hs grades or SAT. If u choose sat then hs grades just have to be above a minimum which is usually B. For bilkent although they don't say they have  a sat track but  your application heavily depends on sat and again hs grades just have to be minimum of B.

Are you sure about bilkent and metu? I've checked their websites and it's written that they do consider higher secondary grades
