Students took the PSAT on campus Wednesday, Oct. 1, morning, to prepare for the SAT and try to earn scholarship opportunities.
“I own an SAT textbook along with the Bluebook,” junior Noemi Duque Mora said. “They offer a lot of practice; for example, practice exams and book sessions or a full-length exam, so that’s one of the ways I prepared for it.”
The PSAT can highlight scores and identify strengths and weaknesses, and English teacher Mitch Wilson said students should use this exam to prepare for college.
“Usually recommend that you take at least two practice tests before the PSAT, but also focusing on classroom skills can help others by evaluating your scores,” Wilson said. “We can tell how you’re performing in class.”
There are several study resources available to students that help prepare for test day.
“I studied through Khan Academy, and I did a couple practices on SAT on College Board,” junior Naina Mahendra said. “I’m not that stressed about it; I think I practiced enough for it.”
