COMPARING THE SAT EVIDENCE BASED
WRITING & THE ACT ENGLISH SECTIONS

• Of the three SAT sections, the Writing section underwent the biggest changes. But if you've taken the ACT, the SAT's new format is going to look familiar because the new SAT Writing section uses the same passage-based format as the ACT English section.

• The SAT writing now also includes more of the same grammatical concepts as the ACT English, most notably punctuation.
