PSAT Testing for Sophomores and Juniors

On Upper School testing day (Wednesday, October 16) sophomores and juniors will take the PSAT (preliminary SAT). The PSAT is the qualifying test for juniors for National Merit Scholarship consideration. The following are a few important items to remember regarding testing day:
  1. Students will be allowed to have “relaxed dress” that day.
  2. Students should bring two #2 pencils and their math calculators. Mechanical pencils are NOT ALLOWED, and math calculators will NOT BE PROVIDED.
  3. Students should arrive between 8:00 and 8:15 am to check into their respective testing rooms, so that attendance can be completed in order to start the testing by 8:30 am. Students who arrive after testing has begun will not be allowed to test.
  4. Students are encouraged to get plenty of sleep the night before as well as to eat a nourishing breakfast before coming to school. They may also bring a snack to school to eat at the testing break.
  5. Most students should be finished with testing and released between 11:30 and 12:00 pm.
