• PSAT is a PRACTICE SAT test that 10th and 11th grade students can choose to take
• This test allows a student to see what type of score they can earn on the SAT if they decide to take it
• For 10th graders this is a great opportunity for a Preliminary SAT. We often get asked what exam students should take, the ACT or SAT. The answer is, find the test that works best for the student. Both ACT and SAT are used for college admissions across the nation, and most colleges do not prefer one test over the other. Having a student take the PSAT gives them an opportunity to see how they would perform on the SAT to determine if it would be a better fit.
