Take the ACT, instead. It covers more, anyway.

Cautionary tale about the ACT.

Check in US News and World Report to see that an average ACT score for admissions is actually reported. I won’t name the Schools but certain institutions say they will accept an ACT or an SAT score but in practice no one who took only the ACT is admitted.

The ACT is significantly easier than the SAT. Great pressure is applied to Universities ( not colleges ) to accept either.

They do not. My son would not listen to me and took only the ACT. He did not get into the school(s) of his choice.

It worked out for the better anyway. ( Thank God ).
