Hi…

Are you a junior or a senior?

If you are a senior, do you know if your schools will accept 2010 SAT or ACT scores for scholarship consideration?

You can try the SAT, and yes, some do better on that. However, the difference between an ACT 23 and the SAT equivalent of an ACT 29 is quite big. It’s equal to a 1300 M+CR SAT (M+CR is usually what is used for scholarship consideration).

What is your budget for schooling? How much will your parents pay for your college costs? That will likely determine where you’ll be going, if the scholarships/scores don’t work out.

What state are you in?
