When do you take the SAT/ACT test in high school?
Don't high-schoolers usually take the SAT/ACT sometime during their Junior year? Does the high school make all the Junior students take it at the same time? I know you can retake the tests, but do you HAVE to take it when the highschool has everyone take it?

Most high school students taking the ACT/SAT take it during their junior year. In Illinois, the ACT is administered to all juniors in the public schools in April free of charge, but I'm not sure if other states do that also. Most people in the Midwest take the ACT, and most people on the east and west coasts take the SAT. I would suggest you focus on one of the tests, and take it at least twice before November of your senior year.

SAT and ACT are both for people who want to get into undergraduate school, you have to take one of them. Some people take both because they might be better at the ACT than the SAT or vice versa, (for example the SAT focuses more on vocab while the ACT focuses more on grammar). You have to take the GMAT, LSAT, IT, MCAT for graduate school (if you choose to go to graduate school) and you only have to take the one you majoring in. So if you're planning on being a lawyer you would take the LSAT, and you wouldn't take the MCAT. I think you can take the SAT and ACT at any grade but most do it in their eleventh year. And they are seperate from your gpa.
