All 8th graders will take the PSAT on October 16 (no registration required). The PSAT, or Preliminary SAT, is a valuable opportunity for your child to get a glimpse of the college readiness assessments ahead. It’s a change to practice test-taking skills and discover their academic strengths and areas for improvement. While the PSAT won’t impact high school admissions, it’s a fantastic way to prepare for future educational success.
