35 on ACT Practice Exam

Test Preparation
1

<p>I am currently a junior in high school and I plan to take either the SAT or ACT in the spring (2015). However, I don't know which exam, the SAT or ACT, would give me the best score.</p>

<p>I recently took an ACT practice exam and received a composite score of 34.75, which rounded to 35. The practice exam I used was created by <a href="http://www.act.org"&gt;www.act.org&lt;/a> and is from 2014-2014. (<a href="http://www.act.org/aap/pdf/Preparing-for-the-ACT.pdf"&gt;http://www.act.org/aap/pdf/Preparing-for-the-ACT.pdf&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/p>

<p>I took the PSAT as well and received a score of 48 in math, 50 in reading, and 49 in writing.
I know these aren't the best scores, but I have been practicing both with the SAT Blue Book and a PSAT/NMSQT test prep book. As well, my school requires that we take SAT/ACT prep classes. The work we do is centered more for SAT prep, however, especially in math, which I believe is what I need the most help with. We never do any ACT prep for math and we do little to none in the reading/writing class.</p>

<p>I want to decide as of now which test I am going to take that way I can focus my time to studying for that one. However, I don't know which to choose. Should I decide to take the ACT because of this one practice exam score or should I continue to practice for the SAT both with my school and practice books? </p>

<p>You can take both tests but if you can get a 35 on the real act there really is no need to study for the sat. Your psat scores are also low for sat so you should probably just stick with act</p>

<p>Stick to the ACT, you are almost guaranteed to be in the 30s if you scored 35 on this practice test. </p>
