PSAT
The PSAT/NMSQT is a national examination administered in October of each year by The College Board. The test is typically taken by sophomores and juniors. It measures verbal reasoning, critical reading, math problem solving, and writing skills. The examination comprises five sections: two verbal, two math, and one writing skills. One of the benefits of taking the PSAT is that students receive a report assessing their performance on the PSAT/NMSQT with suggestions to improve their skills.
The PSAT/NMSQT serves as preparation for the SAT Reasoning Test. The SAT Reasoning Test and SAT Subject Tests, may be taken by juniors typically in the spring or by seniors in the early fall, October or November.
