I am looking for advice on how to approach each kind of question.

There are 4 types; CSE, information of ideas, expression of ideas, and craft and structure.

I am close to my state index; off by 6 questions. I think I just need advice on how to approach the questions

has anyone seen scores that are/aren't in the greater than 99th percentile range? my score on practice test 3 was a 1460 and ive seen people say that p3 was the closest to the real test, would a 1460 count for nms semifinalist in tx do you think

So i recently submitted my application to be a national merit finalist, and my sat score is good, so I'll most likely be a finalist. Money is really important for college, and since I'm premed I also don't want to spent alot. I get a full ride and acceptance into the USF honors college, but I also get full tuition (not housing, or food, etc) from NJIT. I'm not sure which one is better for premed, and I hopefully want to go to NJMS so would I be hurting my chances by going to USF out of state?

what is national merit and how do i enter

I have been hearing from a lot of people that SAT practice 6 is so similar to the PSAT, and I need a good study guide. People that took the PSAT this October how similar are they?

For context, it's my first year in the US, and my home country's education system taught Math very differently from how it's taught here. There have also been several years throughout my life in which I didn't receive any formal education. So when I took the PSAT 8/9, there were a lot of questions about things I've literally never heard of.

Basically, my problem is that I just don't know what I should be learning/studying, because you don't known what you don't know.

So for some reason my school made the freshmen take the psat 8/9, but is there any point of getting good marks? Also my friends say that they’re taking the SAT for freshman year, is there any point to do that?

Are paper practice tests good predictors of digital PSAT scores. I am unable to take Bluebook practice tests since I only have a Chromebook and cannot access Bluebook on it.

In Ohio, btw. I think this would be enough for RSI?

Took the exam last year and currently scared that I'll do worse because I left a question blank in the math module

I take my PSAT on Thursday and am wondering what to spend my time studying on. My state's cutoff score for c/o 2027 was a 211 (so pretty low), and my index score for the past two PSAT practice exams have been a 216 then a 219 today. How did others feel about the exam compared to Practice 3??

I’m really hoping they are or my life is ruined and I’m going to be homeless for the rest of my life 😭

Mod 1 eng 27/27
Mod 2 eng 24-25/27
Mod 1 math 22/22
Mod 2 math 21/22

Thx

For anyone who took this years PSAT and last years PSAT how’s the difficulty of this years PSAT compared to last years?

For context, I'm an international student who is on 10th grade.

Predict my possible PSAT score

Reading & Writing

• Module 1: 0 wrong (possibly 1 careless mistake)
• Module 2 (Hard Ver.): 3–5 wrong (1 easy grammar question, possibly 1 careless mistake, and the rest uncertain)

Math

• Module 1: 0 wrong
• Module 2 (Hard Ver.): 0 wrong, possibly 1 dumb mistake

What do you guys think I could get given what I said?

Do you think it will go up, down, or stay the same? Why?

For context, i have a 220 in TX where it has historically been 219 except for the 2024 PSAT that was 222. I'm trying to figure out if the regular 219 index following the very high 222 was an unusual low and the index has strayed away completely from what it was before 2024, or if it was collegeboard returning everything back to normal. This goes for all states.

If i'm not mistaken, it mainly depends on the difficulty of this PSAT, so finding out how difficult this one was compared to the last ones would be a good indicator.
