Should I take the ACT?

Test Preparation
1

Hello, all!

So, I finally checked my SAT scores -
Math 800
CR 760
Writing 800

Should I take the ACT? I’m planning on majoring in a STEM field, and was wondering if the ACT, with its science portion, or SAT Math/Science tests would better demonstrate this to colleges.

Thank you so much for any advice!

Since you have taken the SAT and did well, it makes no sense to take the ACT. Instead, to demonstrate your ability in science and math, take the Math II subject test and any of the science subject tests you like.

Ah, okay! Thank you. I was planning on taking the SAT Math II and SAT Chemistry at the end of this year, so I think I’ll just do that instead. :slight_smile:
