ACT vs SAT

No, its not a problem in my experience

There are very few schools that only accept one of them. I'd be surprised if this was different with banks.

Yeah - It's not a problem. On my SA Apps, I just looked up the equivalency tables, and put (~1575 SAT per CollegeBoard) or something like that after my ACT score.

Sounds good, thanks for the advice

Careful. They may ask you if you ever took the SAT in high school during your interview, regardless of how stellar your ACT score is. If your SAT score is low, you better be prepared with a satisfactory answer.

Well in that case you answer "I took the ACT and scored XX." Not saying the whole truth but not a lie either... :)

No, that's not what I meant. I meant an interviewer who takes your ACT score, views it as BS, and then demands an SAT score. The answer you gave probably wouldn't satisfy such a person.

I dont think anybody looks at it that way. If you give them your ACT and they still require SAT, just say that it's a comparable test and they can find conversion tables for it. I mean, look at this, there are almost as many states where ACT dominates as the ones that prefer SAT.

Good pt, t73.

No big deal. I see a lot of resumes out of the Midwest with ACT scores in lieu of SAT scores.

I just use a comparison table to get a rough SAT score estimate.
