The EDUFAX Educational FAQ
I am interested in SAT/PSAT/ACT.....
| Question #27: |
- What is the ACT? How does it compare to the SAT? (courtesy Katherine Filiberto, San Francisco, CA)
|
| Answer #27: |
- ACT stands for American College Test.
It is a standardized examination for prospective college students
developed by the University of Iowa. Although originally popular
only in western states, colleges all over America now allow
applicants to submit either the ACT or SAT I. The ACT is a better
measure for students who have good recall of specific knowledge
learned in school. It is less abstract than the SAT.
Look at an ACT review book to familiarize yourself with the content
and structure of the test. Take a practice test of the ACT and the
SAT I to see which format best highlights your talents.
May the scores be with you!
EDUFAX provides Verbal Test Prep Tutorials (PSAT/SAT I/SAT II/ACT).
