I will be giving the PSAT in room 313 on Wednesday, October 14 during an artificially frozen first period. All of my sophomores will be testing elsewhere; seniors, if you have late arrival, plan accordingly--the first period freeze will last through what is now A lunch. If you have nowhere to go during first period you will most likely be relegated to the warm confines of the Guidance lobby.
How to prepare for PSAT? Honestly, get a good night's sleep and eat a decent breakfast. This is a test that gauges potential, not necessarily actual gained knowledge. In many ways, it is an intelligence test. It is merely one piece of a complicated puzzle by which students are placed in college-level courses. Take it seriously, but there is no reason to panic.
Needless to say, if you are normally a hanger-outer in first period, you will need to find a new destination on the 14th.
Happy trails!
