SAT.
- The College Board, including SAT Test Dates.
- Bluebook, an app by The College Board that contains free practice PSATs and SATs.
- More free SAT Practice from Khan Academy.
- PWN the SAT, my preferred resource for SAT Math preparation.
- The Critical Reader, the best source for SAT Reading & Writing preparation.
ACT.
- ACT, Inc. including ACT Test Dates.
- A free complete practice test straight from ACT, Inc.
- More Free ACT Practice from the ACT website.
- ACT Math Formulas, Strategies, and Answer to Frequently Asked Questions from Erik the Red.
- The Official ACT Prep Guide, Erica Meltzer's Complete Guide to ACT English, and The Master Key to ACT Science are all good books. I recommend both PWN the SAT (even though it's technically an SAT guide) and The College Panda's ACT Math for ACT Math preparation.
Other Resources.
- My specialty is tutoring. If you need expert advice on college admissions, please visit Nancy Benton at Admissions Edge or Steph Shea at Launch College Consultants.
- Amy Brecount White is an experienced, skilled college essay consultant. If you're engaged in a vicious battle with your college essays, she's the cavalry to call in.
- If you need help with math, then I recommend Rebecca Zook, an excellent online math tutor who is sincerely dedicated to her craft. She has a pretty neat education blog, too.
- A handy list of colleges that "superscore" the SAT and/or ACT (i.e. they pick and choose your best subject scores from different tests to make your composite score). More colleges superscore the SAT than the ACT.
- A list of test-optional schools, in case you want to opt out of standardized testing.
- Khan Academy, a collection of easy-to-follow video tutorials on pretty much every subject under the sun.
History and Criticism.
- The Big Test by Nicholas Lemann, the definitive account of the development of the standardized testing industry.
- The Mismeasure of Man, an exposé by the late Stephen Jay Gould of the pseudo-science used through the ages to construct and measure "intelligence". A good book.
