SAT vs. ACT

By

SAT or ACT? Which is better?

SAT – no science

ACT – includes science

SAT – essay writing mandatory

ACT – no essay writing (optional)

SAT – points taken off

ACT – guessing is ok as points are not taken off

There you have it. We recommend your student choose the test that plays more towards their strengths. If you want to avoid science, go with the SAT. If you want to avoid essay writing, go with the ACT. If you want the ability to guess and not have points taken off, the ACT is for you. Let us know which one you like better.

Dear Y3K Tutor In Your Home,

Which test is easier the SAT or ACT?

Thanks,

Sarah G.

Wellesley, MA

Hi Sarah,

Your question is a great one and one we are asked all the time. The answer to your question will definitely be of interest to our 1,000’s of readers. Each of these standardized tests has their positives and negatives. The short answer is that these tests have slightly different requirements so you would want to choose the test that plays into your student’s strengths. For example one test requires science while the other test requires writing an essay. Check back here tomorrow as we will tell you exactly what you need to know about the SAT and ACT to help you decide which test would be best.

Sincerely,

Y3K Tutor In Your Home
