Students see preparing for and taking the SAT or ACT as a staple of one’s high school experience. Colleges use these exam scores and a student’s grade point average to help determine whether or not to accept them.  For this reason, educators advise students not to put all of their eggs in one basket when it comes to applying for colleges with a not-so-great SAT/ACT score. “If we’re talking about Harvard or Stanford, they’re going to want a 1500+ on your SAT and a 35+ on your ACT. If you know that that’s the score you need to get, and you don’t get that, then you should probably apply to other schools… Open the door of opportunity and apply to multiple schools. Don’t just isolate yourself to one or two particular schools.” Mai Jumamil, Director of College Prep Programs at Kaplan Test Prep, said.
