SAT VS ACT

The SAT and ACT tests are essential for students who wish to apply to US universities and they test almost identical material other than some key exceptions. The biggest difference between the tests is that the ACT has a Science Test and is much more fast-paced than the SAT.

Colleges don't prefer one over the other, so make sure to explore both tests to decide which one is right for you. If you need help deciding, feel free to contact us for a free assessment.

IELTS & TOEFL

Both IELTS & TOEFL are designed to measure the proficiency of a student in four skills - Reading, Speaking, Writing and Listening. Unlike the TOEFL, IELTS measures all of the four skills independently. While TOEFL is favored by American universities, IELTS is favored by UK universities. Depending on their positioning, some students will have to take TOEFL or IELTS while others will not. Make sure to contact us for a free assessment before you make the decision.

SSAT

The SSAT is a standardized test used by admission officers to assess the logical thinking abilities of students seeking to enroll in an independent school. There are three levels in SSAT: Elementary Level, Middle Level, and Upper Level.

The SSAT Exam consists of verbal, quantitative (math), and reading comprehension sections, plus an unscored writing sample. Each section is worth 800 scores, the total score is 2400. The unscored writing sample is reviewed by the admissions office as a writing sample.

More about TOEFL

TOEFL is an English exam that includes reading, writing, listening, and speaking. Every section is worth 30 points, hence the overall score is 120. TOEFL is originally designed to be part of the university admissions test. However, as more and more students are flocking to the US in the past decade, admission standards have been raised. The easiest way for them to test students’ English abilities would be to look at their TOEFL results. Higher ranked schools would ask for a 105+ TOEFL score because they do not offer any ESL/EAL Programs. They will likely turn down the applicants with low TOEFL scores as they believe they lack the resources to support these applicants’ learning.
