Why Take the PSAT?
The most common reasons for taking the PSAT/NMSQT® are:
- To identify weaknesses in subject areas. Weak subjects
should be studied to better prepare for the upcoming SAT Test™. In
addition, taking the PSAT/NMSQT® allows you
to become familiar with the kinds of questions and the exact directions
you will see on the SAT Test™.
- To see how your performance on a standardize test might compare
to other students applying to college.
- To enter the competition for National
Merit Scholarships.
- To sign up for information from colleges when you check “yes” to
the Student
Search Service.
- To receive feedback on strengths and weaknesses needed for
college study. You then can focus additional study time in those
areas that will benefit you the most. |
