WHY TAKE THE PSAT 8/9?

WHAT IF I DON'T WANT TO GO TO COLLEGE?

  • The PSAT 8/9 is a practice PSAT and SAT exam.
  • The SAT is an entrance exam used by most colleges and universities to make admissions decisions.
  • The purpose of the SAT is to measure a high school student's readiness for college, and provide colleges with one common data point that can be used to compare all applicants
  • You might change your mind about college and your scores remain valid for 5 years
  • Some jobs require it!
    • This doesn't just apply to test prep jobs, either; this requirement pops up in consulting and finance-related jobs, too. And, according to the Wall Street Journal, it's getting more common.
