Importance of ACT vs. SAT

<p>i heard that ACT is useless....and if i have a low SAT score and even if i scored a perfected score on ACT, it still wouldn't count, is it true?</p>

<p>at most colleges, this is not true at all. you'd have to check with the individual school, but most top colleges will take the higher of the two scores. some schools, such as caltech and a few others, require or greatly prefer the sat.</p>

<p>would you care to list the schools that require or "greatly prefer" the sat, por favor?</p>

<p>i'm curious to see.</p>

<p>Wake Forest</p>

<p>and Bringham Young the other way around.</p>
