Considering Studying Abroad...Any Advice?

I'm a rising senior so I'm in the thick of that time where I have to be scouring university options and figuring out how the hell I'm going to pay for it as well. I live in the USA and studying abroad has been on my radar for a bit...but researching it has been difficult. I've been doing my best, but it's very complicated so I want to make sure to cover all my bases.

I'm hoping to study psychology and become a therapist, ideally - but I could also see myself running a small bakery or cat cafe if I had the ability to pull money out of my ass. But psychology pays more and will probably get me further, so I'm focusing on that for now. Does anyone have recommendations for countries/universities to look into, or advice in general about this? Anything would be appreciated! I know basically nothing right now.

I figured this fit under the jobs and careers tag since university is an important part of getting a job.

I told my dad I'm hoping to get a high score on my SAT, and all he said was 'that's unlikely'. UPDATE

I made this post a couple weeks ago and said that I'd make an update post once my score was released, so here it is! I got 1280, which I'm pretty proud of! I was honestly expecting to do worse on the math section lol. Even if it's not quite as high as I was hoping, I'm glad I can say I put all my effort into this! Thanks for the support yall gave me in my first post, it really made my day!

Any advice for a woman flying alone?

I'm 16F and about to go on a trip to another state for a couple weeks. To get there it's a total of three hours of flying time with an hour long layover, and getting back is a total of six flight hours plus another hour long layover. The layovers are going to be at a pretty large airport. I'm a bit nervous since this will be my first time flying alone. Any advice for safety, packing, or just general things to keep in mind?

I have my SAT coming up tomorrow, and while I'm pretty good at the reading/writing portion, I've been worried about my math. So I've spent the last two months studying my ass off, and taking practice tests and stuff. Right now I'm feeling pretty good about it, but getting some last minute cramming in before going to bed. Any encouragement, test-taking tips, or memory tricks would be appreciated :D

EDIT: Thank you everyone for all you kindness and advice!! I just finished my SAT, and while I didn't do amazing on the math modules, I'm pretty confident I'll get good grades on the reading modules. I'll get my score back on the 15th, so I'll make an update post then and tell yall what I got!! Thanks again!
