Is there a difference between the SAT and the ACT?

The SAT is a test designed to measure college readiness in high school students, while the ACT is a standardized test used for admission to colleges and universities. Both tests are designed to assess knowledge of math, science, reading, writing, and critical thinking skills. However, the ACT has more emphasis on language and literature, so it may be easier to score higher on the ACT than the SAT. Additionally, the ACT includes a writing section that the SAT does not have.
