<p>I took both the ACT and the SAT, and these are my results:</p>
<p>SAT:
660 Critical Reading
750 Math
740 Writing
2150 total</p>
<p>My ACT scores are
35 Math
35 English
34 Reading
28 Science (I died)
10 Essay (33 Combined Writing and English)
33 Total</p>
<p>Which one is better and which one should I consider sending to schools?</p>
<p>I would say send your ACT scores. They show better in my opinion. Also, if you were to do percentage wise 2150/2400=89.58%. 33/36=91.67%. The ACT shows better in that aspect. It is up to you in the end.</p>
<p>ACT for sure is better out of the 2. </p>
<p>It depends on which schools you want to send to. But your ACT scores are impressive. Haha, the science section is the most challenging since it is also the last one. </p>
<p>ACT is higher…but both are good! Congrats!</p>
<p>both good ACT is better, especially if you don’t combine the writing and english scores,which I’m not sure if all schools od or not. </p>
<p>From our research, most schools are only using the writing portion of the SAT for placement in English classes (there are exceptions to this of course). Think of your SAT in the old format: 1410/1600. That makes your SAT even worse. Not saying it is bad. Anything over (I think) 1000/1600 is better than average. You just see so many extremely high scores here that it can be a bit intimidating. Use ACT where it is an option.</p>
<p>ACT is the better score for you definitely. Here is the link to how the ACT scores convert to the SAT scores for you to check. <a href=“http://www.act.org/aap/concordance/estimate.html”>http://www.act.org/aap/concordance/estimate.html</a> But excellent job!</p>
<p>I would recommend that you send both scores as they are quite comparable. In addition, it shows colleges that you are a consistent student. To tell you the truth, many of my friends’ kids did better in ACT than SAT. They shared their ACT scores but didn’t want to disclose how they did on the SAT.</p>
<p>They are very close. ACT may be slightly better (~2220 in SAT).</p>
<p>ACT is better, especially if you don’t look too much at that science section, some schools really just care about the raw Math/Reading which is rather impressive. If you wanted to improve them I’d focus on that science section of the ACT, some work there could quickly improve that composite by at least a point. Quick reminder to make sure that you send all of your scores to any schools that are NOT score choice and do require all scores. </p>
