For students to achieve their best results on the SAT and ACT, we believe it’s important for them to prepare in an environment that accurately simulates the real-world exam experience. We advise students who are comfortable and caught up on regular schoolwork to start their SAT tutor preparation at least three months prior to taking the SAT. Test prep, SAT tutor, and college consulting experts typically recommend that students take the SAT and ACT at least twice. Performing well on the ACT usually starts with taking a practice test, so students can see where they are at and where they need improvement. ACT practice tests can be a great way for students to get comfortable with the content, and they can also be used as a diagnostic exam.

A high score on an ACT test at one school can be ranked lower than one from another, depending on the admissions standards that individual colleges have in place. The ACT score some college-counseling professionals emphasize as a high-water mark for selective institutions is 34. While being lower than this does not automatically disqualify students, it can indicate a school is prioritizing prospective students’ ACT scores. If the SAT or ACT score requirement is much higher than the student’s score, students might consider not sending scores if the college is testing-optional, as sending scores is not likely to help their application. Experts suggest that few students are likely to take standardized tests since they are still optional at many schools, meaning taking the test and sending in a score can provide an additional data point for an admissions officer to use to assess the applicant, which can help them to stand out during the admissions process.
