Aptitude Tests for Admission to US Schools

Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) and the American College Test (ACT)

Most US Schools require students to either write the SAT I or the ACT for admission.  Some schools also require SAT II (Subject Tests).  You should plan to write these tests in the Fall if you are seeking admission for the following September.

There are books available in the public library and from book stores (e.g. Chapters, Amazon) to help you prepare for these tests. There are also some private companies in the city that offer test preparation services for a fee.
