Which test is harder ACT or SAT?

Question

ACT science is crazy!!!

Answer 1

I got the exact same scores on both.. My 28 on the ACT is the same as my 1840 on the SAT.

Answer 2

SAT fo sure

Answer 3

SAT might be a little harder because you are penalized for wrong answers and there is also a writing portion to the test.  SAT also has more sections, ACT has only 4, and 1 optional writing.  

Haha yeah man science is way crazy, and reading i thought they didn't give enough time, but i just took a bunch of practice tests and ended up getting a 30.

Answer 4

"Harder" is the wrong word.

The two tests are different and one is not necessarily harder than the other.  Both tests aren't easy, but which test is "harder"  really depends on what type of student you are.

Some students do better on the ACT, some students do better on the SAT, and many students do about the same on both.

The best way to decide is to take a practice test in both.  You can see not only how you actually score, but also how you feel taking the test (which will make a big difference on test day).
