WHICH TEST IS RIGHT FOR YOU
The SAT is changing:
"Some changes will make the new SAT more like the ACT, which for the last two years has outpaced the SAT in test takers. Thirteen states administer the ACT to all public high school juniors, and three more are planning to do so. The ACT has no guessing penalty, and its essay is optional. It also includes a science section, and while the SAT is not adding one, the redesigned reading test will include a science passage."

CLEP - Yet another way to bypass introductory courses in certain colleges:

FIRST - Learn About Your College's CLEP Policy
Currently, 2,900 colleges and universities grant credit for CLEP, and each institution sets its own CLEP policy.
In other words, each institution determines the exams for which it awards credits, the minimum qualifying score required to get credit, and the amount of credits that will be granted per exam.
Before you take a CLEP exam, review the CLEP policy of your college or university.
