Congrats to everyone who took the PSAT. I know it was a hard test and was probably a little stressful. ACP is very proud of you for trying your best and working hard on the PSATs. Everyone at ACP knows about the PSATs and how most students took them just a little bit ago. But, a lot of people may not know how to see your score if you paid to take it in October, so here’s how.

First, what you want to do is watch this video provided for you to further understand your scores and what they mean. https://www.smore.com/app/reporting/out/tjdr1?u=https%3A%2F%2Fcollegereadiness.collegeboard.org%2Fpsat-nmsqt-psat-10%2Fscores%2Funderstanding-scores&t=https://collegereadiness.collegeboard.org/psat-nmsqt-psat-10/scores/understanding-scores&w=w-8323232909&i=&l=l-2042205317 Then, you are going to want to log in or create a collage board account online. Log in on your account to see your score and get some test performance feedback, which will be very helpful because this will likely not be the last time you’ll be taking a test like this. The scores for the PSAT/NMSQT were already released on December 7, so don’t worry about reading this and then having to wait to see what you got.

The only way to access your score is through your college board account. Something that students can do if they noticed they didn’t do as well as they hoped is getting free SAT practice. The PSAT and the NMSQT will prepare you for the SAT. By finding out your score, it shows you a personalized plan through official SAT practice on Kahn academy. If you visit satpractice.org, create an account, and link your college board and Kahn academy accounts, it will really help you in the long run to know how to prepare for the SAT. If you would like to register for the SAT, go to the Knightly Update, and there will be a link provided for students.

Lastly, planning for college is very vital. Sophomores and juniors can kick start their college planning by looking for colleges and scholarships they might be interested in on BigFuture. On the site, students can make a collage list and learn more about the ones they are most interested in going to. Planning for your future is very important even at a young age; you are never too young to start thinking about what you would like to do in your life. Also, do not be discouraged if you did not get the score you were hoping for you can always try again. So, Knights, keep striving for the impossible, and be extraordinary!
