Answer #1

they’re both pretty hard, and each gets progressively harder each year. The SAT is a lot of vocab and language stuff (atleast when I took it in 08) You really just need to get the study books from your library for that, and know vocab, even in math and stuff, when I took it, the questions weren’t so much whats the answer, but do you know how to solve the question, and what the terms mean. The ACT is the easiest for most people because its basically the same stuff you learned in school, so you should vagualy know the information, plus it doesn’t penalize for guessing unlike the SAT which takes off 1/4 for every wrong answer.
