[quote=Anonymous]DD a rising senior took both last spring - the new SAT and the ACT. She did not do a bit of prep except she was forced to take the PSAT fall of junior year. She did much better on the new SAT probably because with no real prep and the longer time for answers, the SAT was easier for her. She also said the PSAT and SAT were the same in difficulty. The order she took them: Nov PSAT, March ACT, April SAT. It seems to me with the new SAT more or less copying the ACT that prepping for ACT would be best and then just take the SAT. ACT requires a faster answering speed. She's not interested in going straight to college - has another passion but will apply to colleges because we'll make her. Luckily she is one and done with her SAT score. FWIW, she is not applying to Ivies and would have to prep to get the scores needed for that. Younger DS will definitely need to prep though. [/quote]
