<p>I live in the South, so the ACT is really emphasized. I'll probably be attending a Northeastern school, though, so I've spent a lot of time preparing for the SAT, but my school mostly focuses on ACT. (In my class of about 900...I only know of two other people who are/have taken the SAT...that's how ACT-centered we are...)</p>
<p>Anyways, I currently have a SAT score of 2310 (800 - CR, 760 - W, 750 - M) from the June testing, and I'm not sure whether to take the ACT. Supposedly, a 1550 on the SAT M + Cr corresponds to an ACT score of 35 (ACT-SAT</a> Concordance). I remember my older sister, though, scored a 2340 on the SAT...and then made a 28 on the ACT; I'm not really sure what happened.</p>
<p>Do you guys think it's a good idea to take the ACT? I'm afraid it'll hurt me if my actual ACT score is much lower than my projected one.</p>
<p>Also, my SAT score comes from the end of my sophomore year. There's a possibility I somehow have greater "aptitude" now, and so will do better on the SAT/ACT. At the same time, though, I'm super busy now (eh...IB is more or less killing me), so I won't have much time to prepare for the ACT outside of what we already do in school.</p>
<p>Thanks in advance. =)</p>
