The ACT & SAT are college readiness assessment tests that are accepted by most U.S. Colleges.  Please check with the colleges that you are planning to apply to in order to see if they have a preference/requirement for one of these tests over another.  Some students may opt to take both tests to cover their bases.  If you know you only need to take one of these tests, please devout your time to studying for that test.  Both systems offer practice tests and on-line prep tools designed to help you achieve higher test scores... we strongly encourage you to utilize these tools.  Please ask your counselor for further guidance.  Links to both systems are provided below:
