SAT or ACT?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
You might not know it from living in Georgia, but there’s an alternative to the SAT. The ACT is a college admissions exam that attempts to predicts college success. It’s not really easier or harder than the SAT, just a different test. More tied to subject knowledge. Just as mysterious in how it’s graded. But some kids who find the SAT tricky say the ACT is more straightforward in what it’s asking.
Yes, Georgia colleges accept the ACT as well as the SAT. Some students take both.
What’s your preference?
