PSAT stands for Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test. This is the test that determines National Merit (NM) Semifinalists. Students must score in the top 1/2 of one percent of the students in their state on this test to qualify as a NM Semifinalist. Students can take it the sophomore year, but the only time it counts toward NM is the fall of the junior year. It is a good idea for all juniors to take this test to get an early idea of where they stand in this testing process, but students in the top ten percent of the junior class should do some serious preparation for it starting in the summer of the junior year.
College entrance exams are critical to a student’s future. With such an integral test, there are plenty of questions. What determines a good vs. a great score? Which tests should my child take? When is the right time to take these tests? Let my tutoring services take care of these questions easily during my PSAT college test prep courses.
