Last Name 3 Zaidoon Sulaiman                                                                   English&235-summer 2020  08\09\2020  Title: Standardized Tests for International Students From the U.S. Network for Education Information a one-page flyer denoting all the entrance tests which the International students are applicable for in order to take admission in various grad schools of our nation will be depicted with proper design. There are many entrance tests, which are common for all in general such as the GRE for pursuing research and TOEFL as a common entrance in order to prove their skills in English. Besides, there are also subject specific tests for graduate schools such as the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) for studying management in US, Law School Admission Test (LSAT) for studying law, Dental Admission Test (DAT) for studying dentistry and so on. The flyer must be prepared in such a way that a small description regarding all these standardized tests are mentioned with a link provided to the respective web pages of these standardized tests. The flyer will be addressing all the US undergraduate students as well as for students staying all over the world. Simply creating a flyer and pasting it on a bulletin board will not help until and unless it reaches the schools and government offices all over the world. The standard U.S. paper—8.5 ×11 can be a good one with a bit of editing. For this purpose, the editing team from advertisement agencies from renowned organizations can be asked for help in order to provide with their valuable suggestions regarding the flyer. To prepare the flyer with bullet points regarding each standardized tests will be better than just organizing them into charts and columns (Education).
