If college is on your radar, don’t wait until senior year to start thinking about applications. The earlier you start preparing, the more options you’ll have—and the less stressful the whole process will be.

ACT will be offering an online option for international students and cutting down the test from 215 questions to 171, giving you more time per question. Sounds good, but the better question is, should you take it?

Starting in March 2023 for international students (and those taking the test outside of the United States or its territories), bubble sheets will be a thing of the past.
