The PSAT is the Preliminary SAT. The PSAT is a great primer for the SAT, and even the ACT, but it’s more than just a trial run. PSAT scores are used to identify National Merit Scholars and award merit scholarships.* Students will be given an option on which exam they'd like to take. You must logged by 8:45 am and video must be turned on. This is to simulate what it is like to take the actual test.

Please have with you when you log in:

• 3 x #2 Pencils
• A calculator (standard or graphing calculator is ok)

For Grades 9-11 ONLY.

Eventbrite registration is required. Registration needs to be under your high schooler's name so they can score the exam. ***

This program is sponsored by Zenith Tutoring.

How it will work:

• Registration will end on September 24 at 8 am (unless all spots are taken and it might end earlier).
• Participants who have registered will be given Zoom access credentials on September 25 by 10 pm.
• Participants will be emailed the PSAT exam by September 24 by 12 midnight and must be able to print out the entire test which is around 50-60 pages (no exceptions allowed).

Participants must be logged in by 8:45 am and instructions will be begin promptly at 9 am. Any individual who is not logged in by 8:45 am will not be able to take the exam.

*GPA, extracurricular activities, essay, and college applications also play factors on whether you get into the award or into the college(s) of your choice.
