Do you have to take the sat to get into college?
All colleges in the U.S. that require admissions exams as part of the admissions process will take either the ACT or the SAT. The two tests are very different, so it would be worth your time to consider the ACT as well. Almost all colleges list their admissions requirements on their websites, so one of your first steps should be to check the admissions requirements and then decide which test to take. Some students take both tests. With the ACT, you can opt not to report scores to colleges until you see the scores. If you retest and get a higher score, you can choose to only report the second set of scores to prospective colleges. Also, most colleges don't require a writing score. The ACT's writing test is optional. That's another reason to check the college's requirements first. The SAT does not have a Science test--the ACT does. The ACT tests higher math (there are a few trigonometry questions) but the Math Test only counts for 25% of the composite score rather than a third for the SAT's math section.
