Take the SAT. It is the easier of the two tests. I got 2 perfect scores in math and reading, but my writing score was only 720, for a total of 2320. I only read this SAT guide, and that is how I got such high scores:

I recommend this guide to anyone seeking to get a higher score to get into a first choice college.

For a seventh grade student to take either would be a waste of money. Until you are within two years of graduation, there isn't any point -- even if you have the potential to score very highly.
In fact, if you are capable of a high score, your time and money would be better spent accelerating through high school.
WHEN you are within two years of graduation, you would want to consider the college you would most like to attend. Colleges in the mid-west prefer to see the ACT. Others prefer the SAT. Start researching college before making that choice. If your college of choice doesn't have a preference, take the ACT -- statistically it's the one with which female students score higher.

Either is fine, but I think the SAT is more widely used (but not by much).
It's good to take it now if you have a chance so you know where your strengths and weaknesses are. This will let you know what to study for before you take it again for college.
I've never heard anyone regretting taking it so early.
