Do you want to study at a university in America? Then the ACT test could be your admission ticket. This standardized admission test is often seen as an alternative to the SAT and plays an important role in admission as well as academic scholarships.
The ACT consists of four components: English, Math, Reading and Science. For each component, you will receive a score between 1 and 36. Your final score is the average of the four partial results. The higher you score, the stronger your profile – especially if you want a chance to win a scholarship or admission to a top university.
SAT or ACT?
Students usually choose either the SAT or the ACT, depending on what they feel most comfortable with. The content of the ACT often fits students with science or analytical backgrounds a little better because the test includes a science section.
When do you take the ACT test?
The test is administered several times a year, including at locations in the Netherlands. You can easily register through the official ACT website. Slamstox can help you: from planning your test date to submitting your scores to coaches and universities.
