The preparation for SAT and ACT depends on the applicants and how they plan to work on their syllabus. For those, who wish to submit either SAT or ACT scores will have to first check what suits them the best and then begin their preparations. The SAT preparation may seem easier for those who are more inclined towards reading and logical reasoning. Whereas, those who have a practical plus logical bent of mind will find ACT exam preparation easier. But again the ease of preparation completely depends on the applicant and on his/her previous knowledge. 

The ACT is faster paced. It has a Science section which SAT does not have. The SAT gives you more time per question but the math is trickier. If you are good at quick reading, pick ACT. Try a practice test for both. See which one feels easier for your brain.

The applicants must choose the standardised test for undergraduate admissions based on his or her choice. The only way to choose SAT or ACT is to first check their syllabus and exam pattern, understand which one is easier for you and then decide on one. Begin your preparation for SAT or ACT based on your research and knowledge and do attempt mocks before appearing for the main exam on the designated test date.
