Difference between the SAT and ACT
Hey! I am a rising senior and I am studying for the SAT and ACT in two months. I want to ask what the difference is between the two tests. How does the level of difficulty vary in each test?

SAT is more opted because it is deemed easier...since it has only reading-writing and math while ACT has math, reading writing,english, science reasoning and essay (optional)
if you're comfortable with direct questions take ACT...if more comfortable in structured questions take SAT
ACT covers a more broader and complex ranges of math while SAT is more in depth of small range of math...
I'd suggest go through some sample papers of both...and see which one you're comfortable with...
