SAT v ACT: Which Test is Best?

Uncategorized Jan 21, 2024

Happy Sunday morn...

Tonight we're running a short but content-packed walkthrough of the SAT and ACT, to help you figure out which test is best for your son or daughter.  It's free and will run for about 50 minutes, give or take.  I smell "Emmy!"

Look, I'll be blunt:  with high school grade inflation even more rampant than actual inflation, it's harder than ever for admissions officers to figure out whether a kid is qualified to actually do the work at their respective colleges.

That's why there's been the makings of a quiet revolution AGAINST test-optional policies happening under our noses (recently, the president of Brown University praised the helpfulness of standardized testing).  Same with Georgetown University, MIT, the public universities in the state of Florida and many other colleges.

We recommend that every kid figure out which test to focus on -- SAT or ACT (colleges are agnostic, they'll accept either) and work their tushes off to CRUSH their test.  Then they can decide which colleges to send scores to.

There's a lot of overlap between the two tests, but frankly, some key differences.  Plus, the SAT is now officially digital.  Our head tutor, Marissa U, will help you unpack all of this and more, in her typical straightforward, clear way, tonight, 7:15pm EST, sharp.  Here's where to sign up:

P.S.  Higher scores mean better odds of admission AND greater odds of winning fat, juicy scholarships.  Tune in tonight if you're interested in either of those!
