ACT or SAT? Take a Quiz to find out which test is best for you.



Greetings from the University Advising Center!

We hope everyone is having a great spring break.  Over the last few months we've had a lot of students asking us about which test to take, the ACT or SAT.  For those in the Class of 2016, it really is an option.   Our friends at Arborbridge, a test prep company have put together a quiz that can help you decide which test to take.

Meanwhile, if you are in the Class of 2017, we are recommending that students take the ACT. This is primarily because the SAT is changing in the spring of 2016 and there are still a lot of questions about how the "new" SAT will work; at the same time there is limited test prep material available for the new version.  If you want more information on why this recommendation is being made, this article highlights many of the reasons for taking the ACT if you are in the Class of 2017.
