Prepping for the PSAT

If you signed up for the PSAT, the testing day is almost here! You all should have your PSAT practice booklet and should have attended practice sessions this week for tips and tricks on how to attack the different types of questions on the test. Now, you should continue to spend some time doing the practice test in your booklet before the test date. Get even more helpful hints from Ms. White's website at:
http://jgwhite.pbworks.com/w/page/69872267/PSAT

Last Minute Advice:
  • Get a good night's sleep the night before the test.
  • Eat a healthy breakfast on Wednesday morning.
  • You WILL come across questions you don't know. Don't get stuck, just skip these questions and come back to them if you have time.
  • Pace yourself. This is a timed test, so don't spend too much time on any question.
  • Don't stress, just do your best!
Test Day! The PSAT will be on Wednesday, October 16. You should check in with your homebase teacher and report to the auditorium by 8:45 on Wednesday morning. You should bring 2 #2 pencils and your jacket with you. All of the other testing materials, including a calculator, will be provided.

Happy Testing!
