<p>do colleges like the SAT over the ACT? I mean they say they will accept both, but is an identical SAT score more impressive than an identical ACT score?</p>
<p>both are equal in the eyes of top colleges.</p>
<p>If your scores are equally as good I would recommend sending the SAT, just because when I see someone who sent ACT and not SAT I assume they did poorly on the SAT, but when someone sends SAT and not ACT I don’t assume they did poorly on the ACT. </p>
<p>Just my 2cents</p>
<p>So what if they did do poorly (or not as good) on SAT vs ACT? Will that hurt them? Why does it matter if the scores are accepted equally?</p>
<p>Yea i’m kind of in that situation, Columbia University is my dream school but I only got 2060 on my SAT. However, I got a 33 ACT which I am more comfortable with sending.</p>
<p>Send only the ACT. Both tests are accepted equally.</p>
