Hey everyone! I recently got a 34 on my ACT and I'm wondering what SAT score is considered equivalent to it? I want to make sure I submit the strongest score possible for my college apps. Thanks in advance!
Congratulations on your 34 ACT score! In general, a 34 on the ACT is roughly equivalent to an SAT score in the range of 1490-1510. Although there isn't a direct 1-to-1 conversion because the exams have slightly different emphases and scoring systems, this range should give you a good idea of the strength of your ACT score relative to SAT scores.
Both a 34 ACT score and an SAT score in the 1490-1510 range are considered highly competitive, and submitting your 34 ACT score should put you in a strong position for college applications. As you decide whether to submit your ACT or take the SAT, you should also consider which format suits your strengths best, as well as the specific requirements and preferences of the colleges you're applying to. Some colleges might have slight preferences for one test over the other, but in most cases, they consider both tests to be of equal value during the admissions process.
Good luck with your college applications!
