PSAT의 모든것 : 어떤 시험이며, 어떻게 준비해야 할까

PSAT는 주로 10학년 11학년들이 보는 시험으로 
National Merit 장학금 지원등을 목표로 할 경우 필요한 시험이며, 
SAT 준비를 위한 전 단계라 보시면 됩니다

PSAT란?....
National Merit: The PSAT is also called the NMSQT, or the National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test. 
Scoring well on the PSAT can get you a National Merit Scholarship.
Scholarships: You can still get some from other organizations, 
                      even if you don’t qualify for the National Merit Scholarship.


10학년 PSAT 평균 점수대:  Evidence-Based Reading and Writing: 479 Math: 479
11학년 PSAT 평균 점수대 : Evidence-Based Reading and Writing: 489 Math: 498
 

PSAT와  Redesigned SAT 차이점
Structure: Redesigned SAT has 153 questions; PSAT has  138 questions.
Length:    SAT is 3 hrs. plus 50 minutes for the optional essay.; PSAT is 2 hrs. 45 minutes.
Purpose:  SAT is used for college admissions and scholarships.
             PSAT is used for National Merit Recognition and scholarships.
Scoring:   SAT has a possible score of 1600 
             PSAT has a possible score of 1520.
 

어떤 방식과 목표를 가지고 PSAT를 준비 해야 할까?
If your goal is to win a National Merit Scholarship, then you should invest some serious study time into the PSAT; you must score in the upper 95th – 99th percentile to even be considered. 
If your goal is simply SAT prep, then relax a little bit and use the PSAT as a preview for the real test. 
Let your final score determine which sections to focus on for the SAT.


How To Qualify for the NMSQT
First things first. Before anyone will every look at your PSAT/NMSQT score, you have to have the following things going for you. Give yourself a point if you are…
A U.S. citizen/intended U.S. citizen
Enrolled full time in high school
Taking the PSAT your junior year
Carrying a strong academic record
Going to complete the NMSC Scholarship application

Preparing to Apply

1.     Honors, AP, International Baccalaureate (IB), and College in High School classes. It’s good to take a number of such classes, but don’t take so many you can’t do reasonably well in them.

2.     Advanced level classes. The Committee is looking for a well-rounded curriculum from all applicants. Whenever possible, go beyond the minimum requirements. Four years of French and/or math, for example, looks better on a transcript than three.

3.     Taking the SAT or ACT more than once. We recommend that you test once in the junior year and once early in the senior year. We will superscore your SAT Critical Reading or Evidence Based Reading and Writing subscore and your math subscore. We will use the highest of the SAT superscore or the ACT composite score in reviewing your application for admission. You are not required to submit SAT Essay or ACT Writing test scores.

Official SAT or ACT test results (SAT Essay and ACT Writing Test scores not required).

Letters of Recommendation

Short Answer Questions: 

In lieu of an essay or personal statement, we ask interested applicants to answer a series of short answer questions. Answering the following questions is optional, but strongly encouraged. 

The Admissions Committee reviews responses for quality rather than length. However, the most effective responses typically range from 250-500 words in total for all three questions. 

1. How have you overcome failure and what did you learn from it?
