Standardized tests like the SAT (Scholastic Assessment Test) and ACT (American College Test) are important tools in college admissions, providing a common measure to compare students’ academic preparedness from diverse backgrounds. These exams are also used for scholarship opportunities, course placement, and enhancing college applications. Performing well can open doors to future success. While some colleges still require the ACT or SAT, others may be test-optional, so it’s important to check each school’s admissions policy. Registration forms are available online, and students who need to test on a Sunday for religious reasons should review testing websites for required documentation, locations, and dates.
