PSAT Preparation
Typically taken in the fall of the junior year, the PSAT/NMSQT measures content learned in high school and provides an introduction to the critical thinking skills necessary for success on the SAT. With three tests—Reading, Writing and Language, Math—the PSAT/NMSQT embodies two hours and forty-five minutes of actual testing. For those who want a head start, the College Board also offers the PSAT 8/9 and PSAT 10 examinations.
