Although there can be various styles for the perfect score, the general structure looked similar.

1.Intro
2.counterargument
3.eg1
4.eg2
5.eg3
6.conclusion
This is what most high score essay is like and whether you take ACT or SAT it is always good to back up your thesis with examples from lit or history.

But I listed pretty general examples for my ACT essay and got 10 out of 12.

Therefore, my best advice is to look up several ACT and SAT books.

ACT book from Princeton has some great advice on how to construct ACT essay so it can give you an idea of what your essay should look like.
After reviewing several books, I think you might find the difference.

ps: I still think they are similar
