What is the PSAT and the SAT?
The Practice SAT (PSAT) and the SAT are both standardized exams used primarily for college admission and scholarship determination. The PSAT is given during grades 8, 9, and 10 with the PSAT 10 starting to open opportunities for scholarships. The SAT is given during Junior year and is composed of questions from all content areas. The PSAT also provides indicator scores to the SAT and students who begin practicing for the SAT during their freshman year can show significant growth by the time they are Juniors. More information about the PSAT and SAT can be found at https://collegereadiness.collegeboard.org/sat.
