The three tips are:

1. Create a Realistic Timeline:

Decide when you want to start and when you actually want to take the test.

2. Be prepared for the Quantitative Integrated Learning Section:

This is good for students who haven't taken math classes for a while, to give them time to study the way the questions are presented and practice problems.

3. Understand the order of the GMAT:

Tests can come with sections in different orders. Being aware of the orders of the test will help you work through the test more efficiently. It will also help you create "process of elimination strategies for different question types."

The main differences are:

1. The Digital SAT is taken on a computer and the ACT is a paper test. There is a digital version of the ACT but it is currently available for international students only.

2. The Digital SAT has adaptive difficulty while the ACT is a fixed test. The math and science sections of the ACT are getting more difficult. The Digital SAT adjusts to the test taker's answers and can get easier or more difficult depending on how the test taker is doing.

 3. The Digital SAT has multiple-choice questions as well as open-response questions. The ACT is all multiple choice.
