  3. Should I Take The ACT or SAT? Every student will encounter a college placement test before at one point during his or her high school career. The choice is between the ACT and SAT. Some students score substantially higher on the SAT, while others fare a lot better on the ACT. This is why it is highly recommended that students understand the differences between the format of the two tests.

  4. What Are The Differences Between The Two? • Questions in ACT tend to be more straightforward. • There is a stronger emphasis on vocabulary in SAT. • The writing test is optional in ACT, but something that is required by many colleges. • SAT does not have a Science section, but the ACT does. • Advanced math concepts are added to the ACT test including Trigonometry. • Content areas in SAT are broken up into 10 sections, but are delivered in four multiple choice sections on the ACT.

  5. Changes To The SAT Are you leaning towards SAT? Know that major changes in SAT will be released come spring 2016. According to College Board President and CEO David Coleman, the test is changing because it has become “far too disconnected from the work of our high schools. They’re too stressful for students, too filled with mystery and “tricks” to raise scores and aren’t necessarily creating more college-ready students”.

  6. Changes to the ACT It doesn’t mean that taking ACT will be an easier option because the test went through changes as well. The revisions to the ACT will be released earlier than that of the SAT. Come fall 2015, the exam will have an enhanced writing test. In the following Spring of 2016, constructed-response subject tests, online administration, new reporting categories, and new readiness scores and indicators will also be introduced to the ACT. Similar to the SAT, redesigning the ACT also aims to benefit students.
