PSAT/NMSQT Testing for Juniors (Class of 2025) - October 26, 2023
The PSAT/NMSQT is now digital! The test is easier to take, shorter, has more time per question, and comes with a built-in calculator. Junior level Math and Language Arts teachers will be talking with students about the PSAT/NMSQT and reviewing the new online procedures.
The PSAT is an excellent opportunity to prepare and gain an understanding of the SAT exam. Juniors are eligible for a National Merit Scholarship depending upon their score.
