Fee:  $34 For Basic ACT

(no Writitng)

Find out from your college if the Writing Portion is required - more selective colleges are requiring this.

I strongly recommend taking ACT + Writing

Fee:  $49.50 For ACT with Writing

Fee:  $49 For SAT Reasoning Test

Find out from your college if individual subject tests are required for your major - usually required only for selective colleges

    

             

                                                                Or

Paper registration forms available for both tests in the Guidance Office

                                               

 

Be sure to include the LCS school code (332725) in order to have score reports sent to us to be included on your transcript

 

Be sure to fill the fields for all 4 score recipients, you will have to pay to have them sent if you decide to add a college after your scores have been received.

 

Be sure to familiarize yourself with how each exam is scored.  They are not the same.  ACT does not penalize for incorrect responses; SAT deducts 1/4 of a point for each incorrect multiple choice response.  As a result, test taking strategies for guessing are very different for each test.  See me to discuss guessing strategies for each test.
