Tests

Let's talk about tests.  Tomorrow is the day that the ACT begins, which, for those of you who don't know, is a very big, very important test.  Your score on the ACT is a big factor in what colleges you can get into.  Beginning tomorrow, every junior in the state will be taking the ACT.  I knew that this would happen, and i was prepared to take it next year.  Then I heard something that could change a lot.  According to several credible sources, next year I will be taking the SAT instead of the ACT.  That is not a good thing.  The SAT is a harder test than the ACT.  I'm not sure why this change is a thing, or why they picked then of all times to do it, but apparently it is a thing.  What are your thoughts on the subject?
