The PSAT/NMSQT is a yearly test that is given to high school Juniors, and allows Juniors to access national scholarships and awards as students apply for college in their Senior year. Sophomores and Freshmen are allowed to take the test as well, but are not eligible for scholarships and awards. This article is meant to provide information about how interested students can find a location where the test is being taken, and purchase a ticket to the test. This year's PSAT/NMSQT will be offered on either Wednesday, October 15th during the school day, or on Saturday October 18th.
Because Mountain House High School is new, and is just beginning the accreditation process, we are not eligible to proctor the PSAT on our school campus this year. Students interested in taking the test will need to contact local schools who are offering the test, and request permission to take the test there.
I also want to provide some information regarding this year's PSAT/NMSQT test. Starting this year, the SAT has completely overhauled the format of the test. The PSAT being given this year has NOT been altered to match the new format of the test, and therefore is not an accurate preparation for the SAT test that will be given. Students who choose to take the PSAT/NMSQT this year should be aware that this test will not be altered to fit the new format until the fall of next school year.
Following is a list of schools in our area that are offering the test. Students and parents interested in taking the test this year should contact the school to determine if they are offering spots at their site for outside students to take the test.
