Preparing For The ACT

Article Category: Education

Author Name: chickie maxwell

For students or the parents of students preparing for college, the question always arises, which test do i take and what is the best way to prepare for the entrance exam. We'll define and explore both the SAT & ACT as well as discuss the various preparation courses available to students.

First let's look at both tests and how they are different. The SAT, which stands for Scholastic Aptitude Test, is a multiple choice and essay exam focusing on math and english components. The SAT basically taps the depths of the students ability to problem solve. The test begins with a 25-30 minute creative writing essay. The exam also has the traditional "fill-the-blank" math section. A total allotment of 2400 points is possible with the SAT for a perfect score. The time allotment is broken down as follows: writing (including essay) 60 minutes, with a focus on grammar, sentence structure, and diction; math 70 minutes, focus on algebra, stats, and geometry; and reading 70 minutes. According to USA Today, 2010 SAT scores averaged just over 1500 points. Ok, so what do i need to score for acceptance into the university system? If you're looking for an Ivy league education, shoot for 2100 or better. If your goal is to attend a highly accredited state university, then the 1700 range is a good starting point.



Next, we'll look at the ACT exam or what was previously preferred to as the American College Test. The ACT is somewhat distinct from the SAT in that the scoring system is considerably different. Also, the ACT subject matter and testing methodology are also distinct. Students are allowed roughly three hours to complete the exam with subjects including math (60), english (45), science (35), and reading (35 minutes). The exam also offers an optional creative writing component which can be used to compliment the test for those with good essay skills. The scoring range for the ACT is 1 to a perfect score of 36. The exam score represents an overall average of the four subjects. The ACT is also considered somewhat more practical than the SAT as it's more based on the high school learning experience. In other words, the ACT is used more to determine what students actually learned from their high school curriculum versus the SAT which is more aptitude or reasoning based. As far as universities are concerned, an applicant needs to be in the mid to upper 20 composite range to gain admittance.



So which exam should you consider? Many students take both. That said, if you excelled more in curriculum oriented subject-matter in high school and enjoyed studying and learning from text books, the ACT is probably better for you as the ACT is a more attuned to every-day life. If you enjoy theory, are more thought provocative, and ascertain philosophical and reasoning issues, then the SAT might be a better fit.



Where does a student turn to for exam preparation and reference? Well there are SO many types of programs available from class room courses to one-on-one teaching, and finally software / online preparation resources. In our current economic environment, not all families can afford class room or one-on-one teaching. That leaves software and online resources as the main options. PC based learning is the preferred option because it's affordable and tests then re-tests students where problem areas are concerned. If you're considering a software or online resource, make sure that it is all encompassing of either exam type and offers consistent online updates as requirements and subject matter change.
