Hello everyone. I am applying to MIT and UC Berkeley as well as a few other schools in the fall and I am now panicking as to what I should be preparing for:

The SAT or ACT?

My Problem: I am very skilled in any math/science related fields, as well as grammar, but my reading comprehension skills are nil. Crappy. On the SAT (I took It THREE TIMES) I scored a 730 in math, but a lousy 520 in CR. My writing score is fine (700).

I have all summer to study, and I plan to attend community college so I can improve my critical reading skills by taking some advanced English course or something.

However, I don’t think that the whole summer will be enough to learn all the vocab in the world.

I heard the ACT has no vocab and has science, so maybe I would do better? PLEASE HELP.
