SAT vs ACT — which should you take?
| Factor | SAT | ACT |
|---|---|---|
| Time pressure | More lenient | Faster pace |
| Math calculator | All math w/ calc | Some no-calc |
| Science section | None (in Reading) | Dedicated section |
| Essay | None | Optional (30 min) |
| Score scale | 400–1600 | 1–36 composite |
| College acceptance | All US colleges | All US colleges |
Most students score similarly on both. Take a practice test for each — whichever feels more natural is usually the better fit.
