Both accepted by US universities. SAT emphasises reading and maths reasoning; ACT has science section plus broader maths coverage. Take practice diagnostic tests of both — scores typically reveal which test the child performs better on. Many students plan based on first practice test results rather than random choice.
Ask for actual score reports — SAT/ACT/GRE/GMAT score reports are easy to share (minus personal info). Instructors claiming 99th-percentile without showing documentation are often exaggerating. Real quality signal: score reports + teaching experience (3+ years), not just high scores.
For Ivy League and Oxbridge admissions, specialist consulting (Crimson Education, MentorPlus, Nicholas Academy) at S\$15,000-50,000 can materially improve outcomes through essay coaching, extracurricular strategy, and interview prep. For moderately competitive universities, good-quality school counsellors + independent essay editors at much lower cost often produce similar results.
12-16 weeks typical for serious preparation. Programmes stretching to 24-32 weeks are often milking fees — plateau effects reduce benefit after 16 weeks. Intensive 8-10 week programmes work for students with strong fundamentals; longer programmes suit students needing foundational work. Diagnostic test reveals which suits.
