Register for either test early! Choose the location and date to take the test. As an adult you will have lower priority than high school students. Be prepared to take the test at a high school (that totally won’t be embarrassing)!

Hit the books! It’s probably been a long time since you took any sort of test, let alone the SAT or ACT - so you’ll want to make sure you’re prepared for success.

Show up at the testing center with your ID in hand alongside your new classmates – aka other high school test takers. Maybe you’ll even spot a few other fantasy Losers amongst the ranks.

Take the test, which will be between 2-4 hours. **The essay is optional for the SAT, but could provide some extra points (you might need ‘em)
