<p>I took 2150 in the SAT. But I want to ED at Cornell but the score is bad :(. I dont think SAT in November is early for Cornell. So I want to give a try on ACT this October. I have some questions.
1. 2 months practice + 2150 SAT, can I get 32-33 ACT?
2. Almost colleges require ACT with writing but I have taken SAT and got 11 essay, so can I take ACT without writing and also send the SAT because I dont want the writing section in ACT will lower my score?
3. Is the ACT essay harder than the SAT one?</p>
<p>Thank you</p>

<li> One more question.<br>
Can I receive the score first then decide to send the ACT score later to colleges? ( I will take it in October and will ED at Cornell) If is impossible, I may stick only to SAT 
@ webass: Does Cornell care SAT writing ? ( or just Math and CR because my CR is just 620 and My math is kind of Asian stereotype : 800) I once read on metaezra.com and see that below 650 Verbal hurts my chance a lot so… I plan to take SAT I on November but am afraid that it is toooo late for my ED plan:(</li>
</ol>
<p>Anyone can suggest me some free ACT prep because my country dont take ACT lot–> not many prep books? I cant find any except for Spraknotes</p>

<li><p>if you have two months and ur smart enough to get 2150s on the SAT, u definitely can get 33 + unless u have no knowledge of science at all; I strongly believe that science knowledge helps A LOT for ACT science because it saves time… especially for passages that incorporate genetics, shm, quantum, or other complex stuff). </p></li>
<li><p>even though u have done sat essay, I would recommend doing act essay if it says that they require it lol… its not that bad anyway…</p></li>
<li><p>they’re about the same… act essay has 5 more minutes…
i think the act topics are better though because they are very straightforward whereas sometimes, u dont really know what to write for the sat topics…</p></li>
</ol>
<p>And question 4 ? Anyone? Does Cornell care SAT writing? And any free ACT sources I may get</p>
