1A Schengen visa will not get you into the US. What nationality do you hold? – Zach Lipton Jul 04 '18 at 02:41

2Your Schengen visa won't get you into the UK either, so if you're going to London first you'll also need a UK visitor visa for that, as well as a US visa to continue on to the USA. However, if you're only going to transit in London, and don't have to pass through border control, and you get a US visa, that is sufficient.

As a Pakistani citizen, you will require a US visitor visa to enter the United States. A Schengen visa is not sufficient.

Will need a UK visa too unless OP is transiting and that still depends what Schengen visa OP has – BritishSam Jul 04 '18 at 14:01

You require a US visitor visa (tourist visa) if you want to travel to New York from London, because a Schengen visa will not get you into the US.
