[quote=Anonymous]I think the best advice is have your DC take a practice test of each and then focus on the one they perform better on. Every college consultant I’ve ever heard speak on the subject says schools have absolutely no preference between them. I think it’s more a question of format than difficulty. FWIW, the SAT is about to change to 2 hours (down from 3) and is using dynamic questions, meaning they start with baseline questions that then decide which later question you will answer. Not everyone will take the same test. If you do well on the early questions you get harder later questions which will enable you to score high. But if you botch some early questions, you will be capped out at a middling score because you’ll only be given medium difficulty questions. People are curious how this will play out and whether the ACT will follow suit.[/quote]
