SAT vs ACT
How to Choose the Right Test
Deciding between the ACT and SAT is a crucial step in the college admissions journey.

Yet, each exam has distinct features, and understanding their differences can help students determine which best aligns with their academic strengths, test-taking preferences, and long-term goals. β

In the increasingly competitive landscape of higher education, prospective students and their families often look to global university rankings to gauge institutional prestige and academic excellence.
University rankings are a significant indicator of an institution's standing, but it's important to understand the methodologies behind them, as there is no single universal ranking system. Different publications prioritise different criteria, leading to variability in results.
A PRATICAL GUIDE FOR PARENTS
For instance, major ranking systems include:
βForbes focuses on post-graduation outcomes, such as alumni salary, student debt, return on investment, and on-time graduation rates.
βU.S. News & World Report emphasises academic reputation, graduation and retention rates, and faculty resources, alongside peer assessment and social mobility.
βNiche highlights student life and satisfaction, relying heavily on student reviews and experiences.
At A&J, our work extends beyond application guidance. We help families navigate the full ecosystem of higher education, including the shifting political and cultural dynamics that can impact where β and how β students are admitted.
If you are a student or a parent interested in getting into some of the world's best universities, if you need to improve your school grades, or if you have an exam you need to prepare for β we look forward to hearing from you.
