What is SAT?
The SAT (Scholastic Assessment Test) is a widely recognized college admission exam, administered by the College Board, used to measure high school students' readiness for college. The test evaluates knowledge and skills in reading, writing, and mathematics, which are all essential areas for college and career success. It's designed to test critical thinking and problem-solving abilities, not simply rote memorization.
The SAT is broken down into two main sections: Evidence-Based Reading and Writing, and Mathematics. There’s also an optional Essay section. Scores range from 400 to 1600, with each main section worth up to 800 points.
The SAT is generally taken by high school juniors and seniors. Scores are used by colleges and universities, in combination with other factors such as grade point average, transcripts, and recommendation letters, to make admissions decisions.
What is ACT?
The ACT (American College Testing), like the SAT, is an exam used by colleges and universities in the U.S to aid in making undergraduate admissions decisions. The ACT focuses on four core areas: English, Mathematics, Reading, and Science. There is also an optional Writing section.
Each of the four core sections is scored individually on a scale of 1-36, and these scores are then averaged to create a composite ACT score.
Though similar to the SAT, the ACT differs slightly in that it includes a Science section that aims to assess students' interpretation, analysis, evaluation, reasoning, and problem-solving skills.
Like the SAT, the ACT is typically taken by high school juniors and seniors. The composite ACT score, in combination with a student's high school record, is used by colleges and universities to make admissions decisions.
Remember, both tests are merely one factor considered by colleges, and not every student is a good test taker. Each college and university weighs the SAT/ACT scores differently according to their admissions standards and policies.
