Western bias!
As for regional stuff, I grew up in Maryland and took the SAT. I went to college in Michigan and pretty much everyone here takes the ACT. It was always weird when people wanted to compare scores.Originally posted by West Texas Wolverine

Re: College Entrance Exams
I was always taught that ACT was Midwest/Middle of the country and SAT was East and West Coast
I took the ACT and only applied to schools within Minnesota. Students who wanted to go out east or west had to take the SAT. Or like a buddy of mine who just took it for fun.tUMD Hockey

Re: College Entrance Exams
Took the PSAT twice (10th & 11th grade); was quite close to a NMS.
Took the ACT & considered taking the SAT because I'm badâss at standardized tests.
Didn't end up taking it, but hey, I got into Tech.Loose and St Cloud go together. Like milk and cookies. Or bacon and porn. -Brenthoven

I only applied to MTU, Lawrence Tech, & Aquinas.
Lawrence Tech assumed I was going there until August, and threw some money at me.
Aquinas threw a crapton of money at me, and begged me to come (weekly phone calls, etc.) but I said no way in hell you crazy Catholics.Loose and St Cloud go together. Like milk and cookies. Or bacon and porn. -Brenthoven

I also took the ASVAB, which basically all of the students had to take. Didn't do too shabby on that either.Loose and St Cloud go together. Like milk and cookies. Or bacon and porn. -Brenthoven

I took the SAT too. I don't think I did very well though, so it never got sent anywhere.
Anyway, I applied to Tech and got in around late October/early November. I also applied to Minnesota (waitlisted because of HS GPA, got in around April/May) and I was accepted to Tech (my first choice) before I got around to applying to Duluth.
