SAT & ACT

What are the SAT's and ACT?

The ACT test measures what a student already knows. It covers material that the student should have learned during high school. The SAT test is used more as a predictor of what a student is capable of learning. It deals with material that the student may NOT have learned in high school. 

Note** UC's no longer require SAT or ACT scores for admissions. CSU's are also in the process of eliminating SAT and ACT score requirements.
