SAT or ACT? I need your guidance!

Test Preparation

<p>Okay, so I took the ACT and didn't do so hot. The only section I scored in the 30's on was the Math. I 100% blame this on the time restraints set by the ACT. Even if the info is right in the passage, I panic and I won't be able to find it or finish because my mind freaks out over the time restraint...</p>

<p>I took the PSAT, but honestly, I can't tell you if I would do better than I did on the ACT (On the PSAT, I misbubbled on the writing section, and when I went to go see where I went wrong, I realized I didn't mark the book (I almost cried), so with 5 minutes left, I tried bubbling off of memory...) It was horrendous.. I ended up getting a 440. When I evaluated what I got wrong, All the ones I got wrong were consecutive, and easy, so I don't have a real indicating score on how I would do. Anyway, back to the subject. I do not consider myself the best critical thinker, but the time LITERALLY killed me... Also, people say if you are good at math, take the ACT. I am good at math, but only math ....</p>

<p>I just need some help.. My dad says I only have one more shot to take a standardized test (I hope he was just trying to motivate me and doesn't mean that). But if he is serious, should I risk taking the SAT with no clue on how I would do? Or take the ACT again even though I did poorly (Because I'm familiar with the timing). All answers would be great!</p>

<p>I did a practice test today and here were my scores. 600 CR 690 M 600 W With little to no prep. These scores do convert to a better score than my ACT so I think I’ll stick with it. I reviewed my wrong answers and found them to be me reading the question wrong and making careless errors. Does anybody have any tips for me??? I’m taking the June SAT and would really like a 650 on the CR and W sections and Mid 700’s on the math. I’m not looking to any ivy league schools, and these scores would make me competitive for my dream school. All tips would be great, thanks!</p>
