FAQ
While many education providers focus solely on the SAT, here at Quintessential, we believe it pays off to also prepare for the ACT for entry to U.S colleges as well. The American College Test is also popularly used by US colleges as part of their standardized testing requirement for college applications. Although not all US colleges require standardized testing as part of their college application, it is a common requirement for selective colleges to require either the SAT with Subject Tests or the ACT.
While colleges do not prefer one exam over the other, there are crucial differences in exam structure and skills tested. As a result, students may find themselves with a natural affinity for one or the other. It is therefore important to find which test will allow you to best showcase your abilities and leave a lasting impression.
Differences between SAT and ACT
Science Section: The ACT comes with a science section that doesn’t require prior knowledge, but tests your ability to read and interpret data, graphs, and experimental results. While knowledge in science is not required, comfort with scientific language will aid in this section as some students may be thrown off by the constant use of scientific jargon. The SAT does not have a science section at all.
Different Essays: For the ACT, you’re required to write a persuasive argument on a debatable issue while evaluating three different arguments on it while the SAT will ask you to evaluate a 650-700 word passage on how the author builds his/her argument.
Reading Comprehension: The ACT English section does not require a high reading level to understand its passages while the SAT passages will come in varying difficulty; SAT passages usually range from a high school level to early college.
Math Section: While the SAT comes with a non-calculator section as well as a calculator section, on the ACT a calculator is permitted for the whole math portion of the test. The Math Section of the SAT will also have a fill-in-the-blanks portion which again, the ACT does not. Information tested is broadly similar with the ACT testing a little more advanced algebra and trigonometry.
Time: The ACT is a much more time intensive test that gives you much less time to solve each problem while the SAT is relatively generous with pacing.
