Edit: never mind haha. I would expect him to take a few days reviewing the stuff. He seems like a great requester so yeah.

Isn't ACT the stupid people SAT though? I'm seriously asking because things might have changed. When I was in High School they always told the dumb kids that wanted to go to college to take the ACT because they'd never pass the SAT's. The ACT's were supposed to be way easier.
Yep. There was a survey here a few months back and, lo and behold, this group is a pretty educated bunch, including advanced degrees. As for myself, I managed to get two degrees without ever taking an ACT or SAT, which must make me pretty ******* stupid.
I tutor both - and I will tell you, it depends on the person. Each has its challenges, and each has its ease.
I had a requester once send me a bonus to tell me I was doing a great job, then a second to tell me there was something I needed to change, then a THIRD to apologize that he sent the second one in error and I was right so disregard it. I made $6 for doing nothing. I <3 mTurk some days...
I'm not sure. When I was in high school, they told us it depended on the college you were applying for. Many East Coast schools wanted the SAT, but lots of schools in the Midwest were more interested in the ACT.
My school didn't even offer the SAT. We had to take the ACT by default. Then again, I went to school in Arkansas.

Really, because I just looked it up and I was apparently in the top 97th percentile when I took that test a little stoned and without a calculator in high school. It's not that amazing.
At my school you did the pretests for both, got your scores back and chose which test or both to take based on what you scored better on. Some people understand ACT more and some understand SAT questions more.
A lot of schools now don't care about either, it's just part of the rigmarole. And with the SAT changing (again) and the ACT going digital, soon, it's just too hard to keep up with scoring predictability.
