ACT Worth it?

<p>Hi.</p>

<p>I was wondering if its worth it to study and take the ACT, considering the fact that Class of 2010 can choose which SAT scores to send. I want/need to study for the SAT and 2 subject tests/1 AP for my upcoming junior year. If so, when should I start studying? Which Prep book?</p>

<p>I’m only considering the ACT because I’m more of a hardworking, studious student than a cerebral/“naturally smart/fast” genius (I heard that the ACT is designed so that as long so you study a lot you’ll get a good score). NOTE that I’m applying to eastern schools for the most part and am only considering a few colleges in California/Midwest (although they are very prestigious-Stanford, UChicago, Pomona, etc).</p>

<p>YES IT IS! even though you can decide scores, sometimes (like yale) schools will either accept SAT I + X#SAT IIs or just the ACT. saves you a lot of time and money. plus it is so much easier</p>

<p>no not really
most pple get almost the same score as sat’s
also pple who didn’t study act and who are naturally
‘genius’ just tends to do good</p>
