Question #101:

My daughter is in the 7th grade. Her computerized PSAT scores were Math=48, Verbal=50, & Writing=43. What is a good PSAT score for a student in the 7th grade?

Answer #101:

The average PSAT scores for a high school student junior are Verbal=50 and Math=50. The Writing score is not computed into the total score. When you consider the fact that your daughter has not been formally introduced to Algebra and Geometry, which comprise most of the Math section, her Math score is quite impressive. The Verbal score of 50 indicates that she has already achieved the level considered average for a student three years above her academic level. Her composite score of just below 100 would be considered average for a high school student junior, but well above average for a seventh grader. I would encourage your daughter to excel in her studies. She will probably have final SAT scores which will give her the opportunity of being considered by highly selective colleges. EDUFAX provides Verbal Test Prep Tutorials (PSAT/SAT I/SAT II/ACT).
