Can someone tell me...

<p>What is different about the ACT from the SAT? I'm taking it in April and I do not want to go buy a book unless I need to. How are the questions structured? Is the Math harder?</p>

<p>I have heard it's an easier test... I took it in 7th grade for Duke TIP and got like a 30 on the test to get National Honors. I thought it was the easiest thing I had ever taken... I remember looking at a frog jumping and it asking me what it was doing in the Science section. Anyways that was a long time ago and that score doesnt count (anyways I did poor on the Math -- got like a 16)... so can someone give me a general idea of what to expect? </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Wow, so you received an average of about 34-35 on all the other sections when you were in 7th grade? That's amazing.</p>

<p>Here are a few threads on the subject:

<p>Thanks! Yeah I started reading at a college level from an early age... I just thought that everything but the Math was simple! I also remember the science being a joke, I think all I did was read graphs. I think I got a 36 on it. </p>

<p>Hope I do that good, and bring the Math up too.</p>
