Attention to all 10th and 11th graders the PSAT/NMSQT is in October. This year we will be administering the assessment to full-time and part-time students at the Inverness campus (CECI) on October 11th. More information will come about times and what to bring will be in the coming newsletters.
What is PSAT/NMSQT?
First of all, what do all those letters stand for? The full name is the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test, often abbreviated to PSAT. So, what is the PSAT? It's a standardized test that 10th and 11th graders can take, and about 3.5 million students choose to take it each year.
The PSAT is used to determine eligibility and qualification for JUNIORS in the National Merit Scholarship Program (which is what the "NMSQT" part of the name is for). It also serves as a practice test for the SAT but be aware that you can't submit PSAT scores to colleges as your standardized test scores.
If you are interested in taking the PSAT/NMSQT please sign up here by 9/01/2023. The cost is $18.00, you can bring your payment to the front desk in check (to CEC Douglas County) or cash form with your student's name and grade by 10/02/2023.
