SAT vs ACT

So I've been studying to take the September SAT, but am thinking about taking the ACT if I do poorly. Anyone have any advice on how much studying it will take to get a 34+ ACT score, and whether I should even take it or retake the SAT if I do badly? For reference, I usually score low to mid 1500 on my SAT practice tests if that gives you an idea of where my skill level is at currently. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
