Early SAT/ACT Test Prep Starts With Reading

Student with textStudents with good reading comprehension, subject knowledge and problem-solving skills are on the right track for higher SAT and ACT scores.

Both exams require strong reading comprehension and vocabulary skills. It's important to read books, magazines and newspapers in addition to required texts. Students who take a rigorous course of study are also more likely to score high. 

Both tests have questions about literature. Both also require algebra and geometry. The SAT requires knowledge of statistics and probability, while the ACT requires trigonometry and has a science section. It's also important to know how to take tests: how to pace yourself, when to guess, how to avoid making careless mistakes.
