After you get into college, it turns out SATs mean crap.


If you go non-ivy in-state SAT''s may be crap even before that.
All the schools I applied too wanted the ACT score (except MIT which wanted your life story)

That''s regional. As I understand it, the west parts of the US tend to like ACT, and the east tend to like SAT. Pretty much everyone here in the Northeast takes SAT, even the state unis or the other colleges that aren''t members of the ivy league.

While many schools prefer one over the other, they (for the most part) will give equal weight to both, so if you only take one, it won''t really count against you. I know at Rice, they say that they''ll really only consider the one that you did better on. Of course, people say a lot of things...
