What is the PSAT and why is it important?
The College and Career Center recommends that all students take the PSAT in grades nine, ten, and eleven for practice before beginning to take the SAT I. Since students receive detailed information concerning their performance on the PSAT, it becomes an important study guide for the SAT I. PSAT scores are private and confidential. They need not be sent to colleges. It is important to note that PSAT scores do NOT impact your chances of being admitted to a college or university.
