SAT and ACT Test Prep–Take Both Tests for Best Results

The SAT scores nationwide have been dropping because so many students now take it that the scaled score is being diluted by poor test scores. If your student takes the ACT test he or she will have a better chance to show off that high score for college admission. As the following article states, preparing for both the SAT and ACT tests will be the best opportunity your child has for success.

When it comes to standing out in the college applicant crowd, getting high standardized test scores is the best way to shine. If you’re applying to college, “There’s a great opportunity to stand out with a good standardized test score,” says Jeff Olson. If the decline in SAT scores is worrying you, there’s always the ACT. Scores for this test have remained flat nationwide, according to Olson. “It’s a smart move to take practice tests of both, and see you how fare,” he advises.
