RECOMMENDED TEST PREP PROVIDER
The SAT is an admissions test required when applying to study at an American university in the US or internationally. Unlike the usual content based exams of the British school system, the SAT tests students' aptitude. Therefore, whilst it is at a similar level to A-Levels, the format is quite different. Try one of our FREE SAT Practice Tests or a shorter FREE Turbo Test to familiarise yourself with the format and timing.
The ideal time for you to try your first attempt at the SAT is in the winter/spring term of Year 12, this gives you the time needed to prep without interfering with your A-Level studies, use our KapMap to plan your application process.

It really is a personal preference and it also depends on what your universities of choice accept in terms of university entrance exams.
While the SAT plays to some students' strengths, it isn't the best choice for others. Same goes for the ACT. Both exams have a similar structure, yet the tests are challenging in different ways. For example, the SAT emphasises reading and vocabulary while the ACT includes a science section. Whatever your preference, it's important to choose the right exam for you! Or, if you're unsure, there is no harm in taking both!
Take the SAT or ACT quiz to find out which is more suited for you! If you'd like a more in-depth test diagnosis, take our SAT and ACT practice tests and see which you score highest on.
