After all the researching you’ve done, you’ve finally found the college of your choice! Yet there’s a few requirements your college has for you such as SAT and ACT scores. But there’s one problem…you haven’t taken your SAT scores!
No need to worry Savs here to help!
- Sign up at SAT.org/register or ACTstudent.org/register
- Get your photo ID; use your school ID or go to the DMV and get a state ID for $28.50
- Go to CollegeBoard.com
- Go to the SAT and check out an SAT book for extra studying!
- Consider taking a SAT Prep course. BC3 offers one; see this link for more information (Scroll to page 19): http://www.bc3.edu/programs-classes/Files/lifelong-learning-brochure.pdf
On the morning of your test, remember to bring the following items:
- https://sat.collegeboard.org/register/sat-test-day-checklist
- Photo ID
- Admissions ticket
- Two number 2 pencils
ACTs have the same requirements before taking the test.
Plan to take your test soon!!! You must register to take your test, and remember, there is a registration deadline; don't get caught registering late because extra fees will apply: https://sat.collegeboard.org/register/sat-us-dates Here are a few or the next available dates:
SAT ACT

SAT ACT

All in all SATs & ACTs are a lot of studying and a lot of hard work, but success on this test is very achievable!
- There are books in the school and local libraries that can help you prepare for your big day!
- If you have a smartphone,start by downloading an app called ‘SAT Question of the Day’’. This app asks daily questions and also gives you SAT Registration dates.
Again success on the SATs and ACTs is very achievable, and with hard work and dedication you can get it done.
