McCarty Executive Secretary Utah Education Association High school juniors and seniors who have college in mind should also have some dates in mind. Seniors who plan to attend a Western college will want to take the American College Testing Program (ACT) test. They may register for the first test of the school year (Oct. 21) until Sept. 22. Other ACT tests will be given Dec. 9, Feb. 10, Apr. 7 and June 23. High school counselors can provide the student with the time and dates of these tests. Fee for the ACT test is $7.50. Students planning to attend Stanford or an Eastern college will want to take the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT). This test will be administered Oct. 18 or 22, and the school counselor can provide information on the specific date. Other SAT tests are scheduled in November, December, January, March, May and June. Cost of the SAT test is $8. Theres no way to cram for these tests, says one Utah counselor. However, a lot of information has been published with samples of the kinds of questions used. They give students an idea of what to expect. The tests contain questions on math, sciences, social studies and English. The counselor said it may be important for seniors to take the first test offered this year if theyre interested in winning scholarships. Early results of the test may be required by the agencies that award the scholarships. Juniors should be interested in these tests, too. A Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test, which is also the National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test, will be offered to junior students in October. This test will prepare juniors for taking the college entrance tests during their senior year. It is also necessary to take that test to be considered in the National Merit Scholarship program. (A counselor said junior students dont understand that this is a requirement for interested students.) These tests require time. They cost money. They may be inconvenient. But theyre necessary for college-boun-d students.
