Colleges accept both the SAT and the ACT, and sending your best score can only help your application.
Though most students perform nearly identically on both tests, 20% of students see a dramatic difference in their SAT and ACT scores.
Much of the content on the SAT transfers to the ACT, and vice versa. Use just a few additional sessions and practice tests to see if the other test is a better fit.
The content tested on the SAT and ACT is almost identical. Most students take both tests, the SAT followed by the ACT, and our SAT/ACT hybrid program is the most efficient and effective way to comprehensively prepare for both exams.
Once students complete our comprehensive SAT tutoring program, we begin a three- or four-session ACT hybrid preparation. The ACT hybrid course takes the content students mastered in their SAT preparation and teaches them how to apply it on the ACT.
The primary goals of ACT hybrid tutoring are:
All four-year colleges accept both the SAT and ACT, and the vast majority of colleges do not have a preference as to which test students should take. Therefore, you should take the test on which you’re likely to perform better.
While it’s often true that students who enjoy puzzles and logic games prefer the SAT and literal thinkers prefer the ACT, it can be hard to predict which test will be a better fit. Let us help you get your highest score on the test that highlights your abilities.
“My favorite part of tutoring the SAT and ACT is watching students’ confidence build throughout the preparation; the test becomes more and more manageable rather than a 4-hour behemoth that they must overcome.”
“I have found that being a successful tutor requires intimate knowledge of the material, such that it can be presented in many different ways. What makes intuitive sense to one student might not be the best explanation for another student.”
“The SAT and the ACT are both highly predictable tests, and in my professional experience I have found that reviewing basic content and teaching powerful test-taking techniques makes these exams far more manageable.”
