<p>When is a good time to take the SAT, ACT, and SAT II. The PSAT is in October/November, so when would it be ideal to take the real thing?</p>
<p>I took the SAT January of my Junior year, and the SAT II during June since I had just reviewed for AP tests and the subject knowledge was still fresh in my mind. To be extra safe you could take the SAT in December in case you end up wanting to retake it several times.</p>
