take the ACT and skip SAT?

I did this back in the day, and didn’t have a problem with it when applying to colleges. I’m now a senior in college and the one area where I do have slight problems is that some of the jobs I’m applying for (higher end management consulting) ask for high school test scores in the application, and it can be a little weird to explain why you only have the ACT. That said, it hasn’t hurt me, and is a tiny bit of a niche… overall I wouldn’t worry about only having ACT.
