CTD does not recommend one test over the other, since research has shown that the majority of students have comparable scores on the two tests. Students can qualify for any of CTD’s educational programs, the CTD Award Ceremony and other special programs for gifted students with either SAT or ACT scores. Please note that students in grade 6 who score at the 90th or 91st percentile on grade-level achievement tests should consider taking the EXPLORE test, while those scoring at the 92nd percentile or higher should consider taking either the ACT or SAT test.
