For students applying to universities in the United States, the ACT is a viable option. Schools that require standardized tests for consideration of admission will invariably accept the ACT as well as the SAT (and the former test is now more popular, as shown by the total number of annual test-takers). Students often ask us which test they should take, but there is no easy answer to this question. Individual student strengths and weaknesses should be evaluated before making this decision, as well as the structure and timing of the tests. Some students will find the ACT to be a more favorable assessment, while others will see the SAT as more advantageous. The most effective way to make this decision is to simply take a practice test for both exams, which will familiarize the student with the exercises, academic content, and framework of these tests. Whichever exam you choose, Manhattan Review in Pasadena has you covered (we offer high-quality local instruction for the ACT and the SAT).
