​Taking the SAT or ACT presents a unique set of circumstances for a family. Very often students and parents seek the advice of a college guidance counselor. And if your child’s counselor really understands his/her educational needs, and that person is committed to guiding you through the college application process, then you are all set. The counselor should be able to tell you whether your child’s educational record shows that he or she would be better taking the ACT or the SAT. If not, after researching the differences, you should decide as a family based on the information collected. But don’t simply make the choice based on a neighbor or a cousin’s decision. There are serious differences between the two exams. The EA Team wants to let you know that periodically, Judy, an EA Team member, speaks about this topic to groups in a Zoom meeting. And Judy is happy to talk to you about your choice privately or if you prefer you can invite a few friends who are facing the same decision, and we will set up a Zoom meeting for you.
Whether you take the SAT or the ACT, the way a multiple-choice exam is structured presents the same issues for a student. During the exam, the test taker needs to consider the answer choices very carefully. Most students use the answer choices to help them decide the correct answer. THIS IS A MISTAKE! The test designer has designed the choices to confuse you. In order to be most successful on these tests, avoid looking at the choices to find the answer. Think of your answer first, and you will be more likely to get the question correct. Practice this technique, and you will increase your score.
Please visit our website (eatestprep.com), in order to learn more about how we can make the college application process easier for your family. If you prefer, email ([email protected]) or call Judy (845.582.0017). Our testing program for the February 12th ACT is concluding and our classes for the March 2nd SAT just began. Whichever test you decide to take, out six-week program you decide to take, you will enter the exam feeling the confidence you need to succeed.
