SAT vs. ACT For the next few College Preps, we will be looking into the SAT and ACT tests. Most colleges will accept either the SAT or ACT. hi Bastrop Independent School District | Date of Presentation
SAT vs. ACT Key Differences For a full side by side comparison, please go here. In the state of Texas, far more students take the SAT than the ACT. You will also be taking the Preliminary SAT (PSAT) next year, which is good practice. STEM degrees prefer the SAT. For these reasons, we will be focusing on the SAT. hi Bastrop Independent School District | Date of Presentation
SAT vs. ACT You are here hi Bastrop Independent School District | Date of Presentation
Should I Take It? Many universities have not required the SAT or ACT since Covid began. This may change, however, before you are applying for college, so it is a good idea to take it at least once. Even if it is not required for the universities you are applying to, getting a good score can help students get in a better school or receive more scholarships. hi Bastrop Independent School District | Date of Presentation
How much does it cost? SAT fee waivers are available from Mr. Longoria. Fee waivers allow you to take the test for free two times your Junior year and two times your senior year. Fee waivers can also be used to pay for college applications. You must be eligible for free or reduced lunch to receive a fee waiver. Otherwise, the SAT test is $52. The ACT is $60, but has no waivers. You can take it as a Sophomore, you will just need to pay the full amount. hi Bastrop Independent School District | Date of Presentation
Where and When? The SAT and ACT are offered at both Bastrop High School and Cedar Creek High School. On the next slide are the test dates for 2021-2022. They have not yet released 2022-2023, but this will give you an idea. If you do not register by the registration deadline, you will be charged a late fee. *Late fees do not apply to fee waivers, but seats fill up quickly and there may be no availability.* hi Bastrop Independent School District | Date of Presentation
Where and When? hi Bastrop Independent School District | Date of Presentation
