Since I grew up in a Boston suburb and wanted to go to school in Ohio, it was suggested that I may want to take the ACT depending on what my score on the SAT was. It turned out that my SAT score was high enough for acceptance to where I went. But before it was suggested, I had never even heard of the ACT and hadn't realized there was an alternative to the SAT.
