SAT Testing Resumes in Egypt
Basant Ahmed
The U.S. Embassy in Cairo proudly celebrates the resumption of SAT testing in Egypt following an agreement reached today between the Egyptian Ministry of Education and Technical Education and the U.S. educational organization College Board. The return of the SAT represents a significant step forward for Egyptian students seeking international educational opportunities. As a key component of the U.S. university admissions process, the SAT opens doors to global academic institutions, scholarships, and career pathways. Its reintroduction will help ensure that Egyptian students remain competitive and well-prepared for higher education opportunities both in the United States and around the world.
The resumption of SAT testing in Egypt marks a notable achievement that reflects the shared commitment of the United States and Egypt to empower youth through education. By restoring access to this vital academic credential, both nations are helping Egyptian students pursue their educational goals and expand their opportunities on the global stage.
The College Board will begin offering the digital SAT in Egypt starting with the June 2025 administration, joining over 180 countries already delivering the test in digital format. The SAT will be available at weekend test centers, many of which previously offered the paper-based version. The digital SAT is designed to be more accessible, secure, and student-friendly, while continuing to assess the core skills essential for college and career readiness. Recognized by universities and scholarship programs in the United States and over 85 other countries, the SAT remains a trusted global credential.
For those interested in studying in the United States, the U.S. Embassy's EducationUSA program offers free advising services to help explain the process. Education USA services are open to everyone in Egypt. EducationUSA is a U.S. Department of State network that supports international students through more than 430 advising centers in more than 175 countries and territories, providing accurate, comprehensive information about accredited U.S. colleges and universities.

Qatar sees 'window of opportunity' for Gaza truce: Spokesman - War on Gaza
Qatar's foreign ministry said on Friday that mediators are engaging with both Israel and Hamas to build on momentum from this week's ceasefire with Iran and push for a truce in the Gaza Strip. 'If we don't utilise this window of opportunity and this momentum, it's an opportunity lost amongst many in the near past. We don't want to see that again,' spokesman Majed al-Ansari told AFP. The Qatari statement came shortly after US President Donald Trump said a ceasefire in Gaza could be reached 'within the next week'. Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office, Trump said: 'We think within the next week we're going to get a ceasefire. We're working on Gaza and trying to get it taken care of.' The United States brokered a temporary ceasefire during the final days of Joe Biden's presidency, with involvement from Trump's incoming administration. That agreement collapsed in March when Israel resumed its war on Gaza, launching a wave of air and ground attacks that killed more than 400 people in the first days alone. Since then, Israeli bombardments have continued across the Gaza Strip. According to Gaza's health ministry, 6,008 Palestinians have been killed and 20,591 wounded since Israel resumed strikes on 18 March. The total death toll since October 2023 now stands at 56,331, with 132,632 injured. *This story was edited by Ahram Online. Follow us on: Facebook Instagram Whatsapp Short link:

Congratulations to Egypt
Elham Aboul Fateh A major victory for the Egyptian parliament was achieved this week. Egypt assumed the presidency of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Union for the Mediterranean (PAUfM) . Egypt was elected unanimously by the member states, who voted for MP Mohamed Abou El-Enein, Deputy Speaker of the Egyptian Parliament, to assume the presidency of the Mediterranean Parliament. This victory is the result of Egypt's foreign policy and the world's growing confidence in the wisdom of President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, who was able to restore Egypt's regional and international position with steady steps and a clear vision. MP Mohamed Abou El-Enein emphasized this in his speech after assuming the presidency, where he spoke about President Sisi's wisdom, leadership, and wise leadership that has restored Egypt's leadership in its region and the world, and about the major role played by the Egyptian Parliament in its current session, headed by Counselor Dr. Hanafi El-Gebali, and the achievements made during the recent period. He presented a comprehensive roadmap for cooperation between the two shores of the Mediterranean, based on the principle of equality and equivalence, far from conditional aid or unbalanced relations, with an ambitious vision that takes relations from words to implementation, from crises to practical solutions, in the spirit of true cooperation. I was there and I felt proud as an Egyptian, as my heart was filled with pride for my country since it gained the world's respect and appreciation. I saw looks of respect directed at Egypt, not only for its historical weight, but also for its role and its plans for the future. Egypt's selection to assume the presidency of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Union for the Mediterranean (PAUfM), with the unanimous support of 38 countries, confirms that it remains the cornerstone of stability in the region and the natural bridge linking the North to the South, and Europe to the Arab world and Africa. MP Mohamed Abou El-Enein, the new President of the Euro-Mediterranean Parliament, is a highly experienced parliamentarian with a long history of international engagement. He possesses a capacity for influence, dialogue, and joint construction. This is what made his selection widely welcomed and appreciated. The selection of Egypt is a victory for its policies, institutions, political leaders, and people. Congratulations to Egypt. God bless Egypt. read more Analysis- Turkey Has 0 Regional Allies... Why?
