27 New SAT and ACT: 5 Key Differences 1. The New SAT has a greater focus on History & Social Studies passages ACT? New SAT? What s the Difference? 2. Both focus on Algebra, but the New SAT has a greater emphasis on Data Analysis & Problem Solving 3. The ACT requires more Science reading 4. The New SAT requires more mental math 5. The New SAT has grid-in questions, and an extended thinking grid-in question
28 Curriculum Questions Math: Does increase in Algebra mean students should aim to finish Alg II in Sophomore year? How can schools incorporate more data analysis? Are changes warranted for few trig questions or not? Science: Do students do enough analysis of science reading passages? English: Do students get enough exposure to non-fiction reading passages compared to literature? Should students be more prepared to analyze arguments vs. forming opinions? SS/History: Are students able to glean information from charts such as pop growth over time? Classical Languages: Are Latin and Greek less relevant now that vocab is not tested directly on the SAT?
