Deciding Which Test to Take
You may be wondering which test is the best option for you and your college aspirations. Both the ACT and SAT are accepted by colleges all over the country. Neither test will give you an advantage over the other as far as acceptance is concerned. However, determining which test best suits your skills and abilities will make it easier for you to earn your highest scores.
Here are some things you need to know:
Length of Test: Both the SAT and ACT are actually similar in length. Overall time for taking and completing the SAT is 3 hours with an additional 50 minutes if you choose to add the essay portion. The ACT will take slightly less time, 2 hours and 55 minutes, plus 40 minutes for its optional essay.
Sections: Similar sections are included on the ACT and SAT. The SAT has sections labeled Reading, Writing and Language, Math Calculator, and Math No Calculator, and the optional essay. On the other hand, the ACT includes: English, Math, Reading, Science, and the optional essay.
When considering the sections, those who are better at math and are adept at using a calculator will find that the SAT might be the best choice. Whereas those who are stronger in History/Social Studies (which are generally the focus of the reading passages) and English, may prefer to take the ACT.
Question Count: The ACT has more questions than the SAT. There are 215 questions on it as opposed to 154 on the SAT. Also, the SAT allows more time for answering the questions than the ACT does. Students who struggle with time management, or are easily overwhelmed by time constraint pressures, will probably have better success on the SAT.
