1.What's the difference between sat and ACT?

The difference between SAT and exam design is different:

SAT tests reasoning and language ability, while ACT pays more attention to what students learn in school. Therefore, there is a saying that "good students" are good at doing ACT and "students who will take exams" are good at doing SAT.

The difference between SAT and ACT consists of different parts:

The SAT consists of three parts: language, mathematics and writing. The ACT test consists of five parts: English, mathematics, reading, science and optional writing. The writing part of the SAT is a must. When the university you apply for does not require writing scores, if you take the ACT test, you can omit the writing part. The writing part will affect your SAT score, but it will not affect your ACT score.

Difference 3: SAT and ACT have different exam structures:

The SAT consists of ten parts, while the ACT consists of four parts. SAT consists of reading, math, writing and experiment. The experimental part will not be graded during the exam. ACT includes some English, some math, some reading and some science.

Difference 4: The contents of SAT and ACT are different:

The mathematics of SAT only includes the second to ninth grades of geometry and algebra, and ACT includes trigonometric geometry. The SAT has no science section, while the ACT contains science, although the science section of the ACT only tests reading charts, understanding experiments and scientific discussions, and does not test your knowledge of physics, chemistry and biology. As far as reading is concerned, SAT emphasizes sentence completion, reading comprehension and analysis of long and short paragraphs, while ACT tests the reading of four short passages. These four papers are divided into four areas: prose novels, humanities, natural sciences and social sciences. SAT requires a short essay and answers questions about grammar and vocabulary, while ACT focuses on grammar.

Difference 5: The SAT and ACT exams handle wrong answers in different ways:

SAT answers incorrectly are scored, and ACT answers incorrectly are not scored, but it is not.

Difference 6: SAT and ACT have different scoring methods:

Each part of the SAT ranges from 200 to 800, and the total score is the sum of the three parts, out of 2400. The scores of each part of the ACT test range from 1 to 36, and the total score is the average score of the four parts, out of 36 points.

Difference 7: SAT and ACT have different forms:

SAT contains far more words than ACT. ACT is all multiple-choice questions, but SAT is not all multiple-choice questions. ACT directly tests candidates' English grammar, while SAT does not test grammar.

ACT is an American college entrance examination, an authentic American college entrance examination. There is nothing to say ... but I don't know why SAT has become the mainstream now ... ACT scores 36, and English math reading is divided into scientific reasoning, which is slightly less difficult than SAT. American universities basically accept ACT and SAT scores. ...

Now its function is equivalent to the American college entrance examination, which is accepted by most universities and must provide certain requirements. However, in fact, no state in the United States requires you to take the SAT ... After the SAT reform, the full score is 1600, which is divided into grammar reading, mathematics and optional writing.

3. Introduce the differences among AP course, SAT course and ACT course.

SAT and ACT(GAC) are organized by two authoritative non-governmental educational institutions in the United States, which are similar to the senior high school entrance examination in China (more precisely, the combination of senior high school entrance examination and college entrance examination). For domestic students, the test difficulty of SAT and ACT(GAC) is equivalent to the level of Grade One to Grade Two in China. SAT and ACT(SAT) are exams rather than curriculum systems in the United States. At present, some middle schools in China implement SAT and ACT as the curriculum system. However, American high school courses and American college preparatory courses are positioned at the high end, and the difficulty and breadth of the last part of the courses have reached the level of American freshmen. Therefore, students with excellent academic performance in junior high school (such as Daqu key high school grades or above), parents who locate high-end students for their children, or students with excellent academic performance but excellent English subjects or gifted students are more suitable to choose American high school courses and American college preparatory courses; However, students with poor academic performance and average academic ability are suitable to choose easier courses with SAT or ACT as the content (such as GAC/PGA, etc.). ) only deal with exams.

As a compulsory course in American universities, AP is more difficult than SAT, and it is also an index for colleges and universities to admit students. I wonder if there is this in China. . .

AP and A-LEEL courses offered by international courses, A-level is a senior high school course in Britain, and AP is a first-year and last-year course for American high school students (a few top students), so it is not suitable for high school students in China unless they are top students. Moreover, AP is mainly used to exchange credits from American universities, not to apply for American universities. If you apply for an American university, you need to choose ACT or SAT, the American College Entrance Examination. SAT needs to be taken in Hong Kong, and ACT can be taken in Shandong Normal University in Jinan. It is recommended to attend ordinary classes, because the learning atmosphere in ordinary classes is stronger, and students in international classes are generally dozens of points below the admission line. If you want to go abroad, you can use your spare time (weekends, winter and summer vacations) to study ACT courses and TOEFL courses from the first year of high school. Mountain Normal University is an authorized examination center, where you can study. Many students in foreign language schools study in this mode. Exercise a good foundation and save time and cost.
