How to Choose the Best Test
Strengths and Weaknesses:
If you’re stronger in science and prefer straightforward questions, the ACT might be better.
If you excel in critical reading and writing and prefer a more analytical approach, the SAT could be a better fit.
Practice Tests:
Take practice tests for both exams to see which format you’re more comfortable with and score higher on.
College Requirements:
Check if the colleges you’re interested in prefer one test over the other or if they accept both equally.
Test Dates and Locations:
Consider the availability of test dates and locations in your area for both exams.
Preparation Time:
Think about how much time you have to prepare. Some students find that they perform better on one test after adequate preparation.
Composite vs. Section Scores:
The ACT’s composite score is an average of your section scores, while the SAT combines section scores. Consider which scoring method plays to your strengths.
Final Advice
Balance Preparation: Focus on the test that aligns with your strengths but consider preparing for both if you have the time and resources.
Consistency in Testing: Sticking with one test allows you to become more familiar with its format and content, potentially improving your score through focused practice.

I am excited about The Creative Wellness Project, a faith-based creative ministry! My board and I have been discussing a lot of cool things! I asked God what I was to do with it... and He said teach... so... We have a middle school and high school program that mixes faith, creativity, and service! There is also a community portion that includes creative arts workshops that are both faith and non faith based! Check out our website www.creativewellnessproject.com and let me know if you want to be part of something dope where you get to share your faith in God, create, and serve the community!

Thank you all! I loved being part of your world!!!
It has been a challenging few months for a lot of things but mostly my business. I have/had a bookstore for over a year. I resigned and took a leap of faith to open a brick and mortar space to uplift and amplify voices of color. This space housed open mics, book readings, creative markets and more. It was a space where black, indigenous, and people of color could put their books and creations on the shelves without censorship. This place allowed families to come and create for next to free. It was a beautiful space and unfortunately as I enter this new year I close the doors on this space. It is hard to receive when your hands are full. So I had to empty my hands… I worked really hard on this and had amazing supporters as well. I’m looking forward to the next phase of my journey. Thank you all for your support! There will be plans for so please continue to support!!
I taught this workshop yesterday and the ladies LOVED it! We have early bird pricing and then goes up on Wednesday! Check out the review...
