Should I take both the ACT and the SAT?

<p>ACTs are accepted by UC's right? Should I take both (since they have different testing times) and see which one is better? </p>

<p>Will colleges see both of my scores if I only send it one or the other? Would you say that the ACT is easier than the SAT? </p>

<p>Please give me some suggestions as to which test I should take. (I'm very poor in CR and essay writing) Thank you.</p>

<p>You should take both and practice whichever one you do better in and then take it again.</p>

<p>I suggest taking both. If you take the SAT and don't get a score you want but the college you're applying to requires SAT IIs, then you will be forced to send your SAT I scores with your SAT II scores, so in some situations colleges will see your SAT I scores whether you want them to or not. The ACT you can just send whichever individual score you want so you have more control.</p>

<p>They're pretty even as far as difficulty. The ACT has science, which is hard for some people, but it doesn't have an vocab, unlike the SAT.</p>
