    PSAT/NMSQT Student Guide

    The PSAT/NMSQT evaluates the skills each student has developed in mathematics and evidence-based reading and writing; and also provides the tools a student needs to reach his or her college goals.  Because the PSAT/NMSQT evaluates the same skills as the SAT, taking this assessment is an effective way for a student to start getting ready for the SAT.  Additionally, the PSAT/NMSQT gives each student personalized feedback about their academic strengths and weaknesses, helping each student to prepare for success in college and careers. A score of 430 on the math section also provides students with an Algebra 1 EOC concordant score needed for graduation requirements.
