PSAT Tutoring

Is your child in the 10th grade? That means that the PSAT right around the corner!

The PSAT stands for the pre-SAT. Why bother studying for a practice test? The first really big reason (of the many) is that the PSAT acts as the qualifying examination for the highly esteemed National Merit Scholarship. This scholarship can not only help you pay for college by absorbing some of its exorbitant cost, but can also make your student a much more desirable candidate for the most prestigious universities in the nation.

The second really big reason is that many people have not heard of the PSAT, put on by the same group that brings us its better-known and better-feared cousin, the SAT, obviously does not diminish its importance. However, this lack of general foresight can act as an advantage for you and your student. Fewer people knowing about the PSAT means fewer people studying for the PSAT. This means that fewer students are well-prepared for the PSAT. And this means that there can be an even greater advantage to preparing for the PSAT than for the SAT. Less well-prepared competition can make a well-prepared student even more competitive.

The trick is to make your student one of the well-prepared, to help them rise to the top and nab that National Merit Scholarship. Standardized tests are often difficult for even the most gifted students. Many talented students struggle with tests like the PSAT, with their stressful combination of tough subjects and tougher time constraints.

The third really big reason (and the great thing about standardized tests!) is that standardized tests are predictable, when you know how to predict them. Your student will be one of the few that knows how to predict the PSAT if they have the help of our excellent Adam Wes Academics PSAT tutors!
