The PSAT-NMSQT (Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test - National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test) is a practice test for the SAT. If a student knows he/she will need the SAT as part of admissions requirements, taking the PSAT is an excellent idea. The PSAT-MNSQT is also used for qualifying scholarship competitions for juniors. All 10th grade students take the PSAT for free, it is paid for by the state. We also expect all 9th and 11th grade students to take the PSAT. There is a $15.00 fee for 9th and 11th grade students who would like a copy of their PSAT scores.
Ponte Vedra High School will be administering the PSAT on Wednesday, October 17, 2012 in the student's homeroom.
For more information about the PSAT, please visit the College Board website.
The PLAN is a predictor of success on the ACT. It is taken the 10th grade year and is used to give students an early start on planning and preparing for the future. The assessment focuses on four key areas: writing skills, math, reading and science reasoning. The test results provide information on where the student currently is performing in relation to academic skills and abilities in the four areas tested.
For more information about the PLAN, please visit the ACT website.
