<p>Here’s an ACT-SAT concordance table. Your daughter’s 1300 is equivalent to a 29 on the ACT.</p>

<p>Some people have characterized the ACT as “stuff you already [should] know” as opposed to the logic and reasoning-oriented SAT. Therefore, it shouldn’t require much additional prep time. My daughter took a few practice tests out of the book and did fine (I don’t want to post her exact score). I highly recommend that your daughter take the ACT, and there is bound to be a test date that will fit in with her schedule. My daughter took it in February 2009.</p>
