well i think you are looking for a doctor of pharmacy program ? , then you have to take the pcat, and get into a four year program, and then all the residency stuff...and check with the college you want to go to, if the extent of your studies matches the requirement for admission .

Yes. There are a lot of colleges who take international undergraduates. You need to take the SAT and TOEFL at least. Then different schools may require extra tests. You should make a list of schools you are interested in and then e-mail the school's International Student Service representatives and ask them your questions. They are generally receptive and helpful.

Maybe or maybe not.. SAT is one of the criteria in having a scholarship in a US University. Well, Don't be nervous, I'm in Yale and be confident. Don't let that one thing in your way as you succeed to your future :)
2 :
Each university and the course has different score requirement, so you will have to check. I would say that anything above 1600 is a pretty decent score. If you think that you are missing on alot of universities because of the score you can try taking SAT again. For SAT preparation you can try examville.com. It has lot of timed practice questions and other useful aids. Hope this helps.

It all really depends on the college you apply to; if you want to get a lot of scholarships it would probably be a smarter idea to apply to a less diverse school, or one with a low population of students from India, as they'll likely be trying to up their student diversity at the time, and you might be able to find some sort of scholarship open just for being a minority (by US standards). You could also find out if there are any sponsored scholarships available; usually these involve you entering an essay on an assigned topic. It's more work, but can make a big difference. These likely won't be listed on school websites though, so you'll have to go out of your way a bit more to find them. One thing that schools will put a lot of stress on is your overall grades through primary school, class ranking, financial status, family history, extracurricular activities, and course load. If possible, I would retake the SATs if I were you. And apply for a lot of scholarships; there will be more available for private colleges versus public ones, but the private are also altogether more expensive. It would be in your best interest to get as many scholarships as possible in a few schools that you'd like to go to, and see which one is cheaper with all of them factored in. Sometimes a private college can end up costing less because of scholarships than a public one. I hope any of that was of use... Good luck!!

^^ well i didn't go to India but I did go to Japan for a year. I loved it so much, I actually stayed for another year. It's a great experience no matter where you go. Seeing another culture and immersing yourself in it. The festivals were amazing and the people were very friendly (especially my first few weeks when all I could speak was choppy japanese). I was so nervous the night before I left, but I just told myself, this is the chance of a lifetime. Whatever happens, happens. So go for it and have fun!

Try looking through the discussions on cultures-shocked.org. Or perhaps AFS can supply the contact info for someone who has gone there. Good luck!!

You are questing for the impossible. You canny simply decide to become an American citizen. You need to apply for a green card and IF you are accepted (a lengthy process), you can live in the united states and after the passage of several years, apply for citizenship.

It is better to go as a student. For immigration purposes, you will be better off. Being a student allows you the time to learn about the place. As an employee, you need an employer to employ you. Won't that be difficult if you have never been there and you are inexperienced, you are only a fresher.Sart small and you will grow. If you really want to work there, as a student, you will have ample time to inquire directly about jobs while studying and it is also easy if you have some experience living in the place you will be better equipped and your immigration statue will also be better. Students are allowed to apply for work permits after a certain period.
