With the writing test its about 3hrs and 20 minutes. If you still can't crack the SAT then you should most definitely try taking the ACT. The only reason people don't like it is because the ACT has extremely rough time constraints, e.g. 35 minutes to answer 40 comprehension questions and read 4 passages.

yes they are... and I'm slightly disappointed in my scores because my stupid Science and Reading scores dropped my composite... GRRRR!!!
ACT Composite 31 Test Score (1-36) Subscore (1-18) Subscore (2-12) English 33 Usage/Mechanics 17 Rhetorical Skills 17 Mathematics 32 Pre-Algebra/Elementary Algebra 18 Int. Algebra/Coord.Geometry 15 Plane Geometry/Trigonometry 15 Reading 29 Social Studies/Science 16 Arts/Literature 14 Science 29 Combined English/Writing 31 Writing 09 so... that's like a 1380 SAT verbal plus math... which is lower than my SAT score... heh... I think I'd be better off sticking with the SAT. No science to lower my score. I've always hated reading comp, and science comp killed me. |

I'm really nervous about seeing my scores because this was the last chance to take it during my un-stressful junior year. Next year I'm going to need to spend more time studying for school, so I'm worried that I won't have time to study for these tests.
