I can see how that could happen. I think both of ours were pretty equal between the tests.

You mention "converting." Is there some kind of rough scale to do that? Or is it just kind of understood that SAT XXXX=ACT XX?

Just curious.

I do find standardized tests troublesome on a number of levels, but they helped, scholarship and otherwise with ours.

All in all, I'm glad to be past all of this since our youngest graduates in May.
