Question #3:

I was wondering if taking the PSAT was very necessary ?

Answer #3:

If you are planning to take the SAT, the PSAT is good practice. The experience of taking a standardized test will help you understand your skills and timing. Also, the printout you receive of your correct and incorrect answers can give you good information about your strengths and weaknesses in time to prepare for the SAT. A small percentage of students who take the PSAT are recognized with Letters of Commendation, Semi-Finalist, or Finalist status. In addition to the honor, these awards can provide scholarships for college. Have I convinced you yet? Sharpen your Number 2's and take the PSAT. For the investment of one Saturday morning, the dividend could be spectacular. EDUFAX provides Verbal Test Prep Tutorials (PSAT/SAT I/SAT II/ACT).
