COMPARING THE SAT & ACT READING SECTIONS
- Although the sentence completions and short passages were eliminated from the SAT Reading Section, the remaining long reading passages look more or less the same as they always have, with a few exceptions.
- As part of the plan to make the reading texts more complex and therefore more similar to what you might read in school, the new SAT reading will include excerpts from classic texts from the Western canon, including stories and essays by famous authors, U.S. founding documents, and other historically important works.
- Because these are often quite old, they include a lot more challenging language.
