The ACT (or sometimes SAT) is required for admission to college. Everyone must take it.
The LSAT is required for admission to law school. You will take this during your junior or senior year of college if you choose to go to law school.

well if you are still in high school then you should be taking the SAT or ACT the LSAT is after you graduate from undergrad if you want to go to law school. In undergrad you have a choice between LSAT, GRE, MCAT........depending on which course of study you want to take next, e.g. law school, medical school. The LSAT and MCAT are required for law and med school but the GRE is not always required for graduate school.
Further, I would recommend the SAT. The ACT is more difficult because wrong answers count against you. The SAT is just a cumulative of your right answers but in the ACT the answers are weighted and wrong answers are deducted from your score. The only thing about the ACT is that it will suggest based on your score what kind of jobs might better suit you. This was a bit discouraging for some people because their results didn't always reflect their goals.
Good luck

The ACT and the SAT are tests people take before going to college for a bachelor's degree. Most universities prefer you to take the SAT.
Law school is a graduate degree -- so you won't be applying until you are a senior in college. You take the LSAT then -- assuming you can get good grades in college.

I would suggest ACT for just a very good basic admission to a college/university, but you would probally want both since you want to be a lawyer. You could buy a study book for the tests like barrons. The ACT covers Science reasoning,Reading,English,and math, also an optional writing test that I would suggest taking because colleges usually recomend the writin test also. The ACT important fact: Guessing is good, try your best to narrow down the results so you can guess from the answers. I hope that helps!

The LSAT is a "learnable" examination, so reading for the LSAT does certainly advance your score. individually, my first proctored LSAT preptest score became a 152. via the tip of two-3 months of LSAT prep, I had greater beneficial that score to a 178 on my very final preptest, and that i finished up scoring a 177 on the certainly LSAT administration. interior the examination, particular sections are greater learnable than others. The good judgment video games or Analytical Reasoning section is the main learnable. The Logical Reasoning section is 2nd maximum learnable (yet via fact it money owed for one million/2 of your score, progression on that section can rather impression your score). ultimately, analyzing Comprehension (via fact it rather assessments your skill to with out postpone examine and comprehend passages) is the main confusing to advance.

If you are still in high school then you should take either the ACT or the SAT. It all depends on which school you want to attend. Generally west coast schools prefer ACT and most east coast schools prefer the SAT but that is not true for every school.
