Free PSAT Practice Test

The PSAT/NMSQT® may not seem that important compared to the SAT® or ACT®, but taking this exam, and doing well, has significant benefits! Students can earn money for college and score higher on the SAT. Taking the PSAT junior year, gives students the opportunity to qualify for several scholarships, particularly the National Merit Scholarship Program, the National Achievement Scholarship program, and the National Hispanic Recognition Program.  

According to the College Board, on average students who take the PSAT/NMSQT score 146 points higher on the SAT than those who don’t.

To help students prepare for the PSAT, Kaplan Test Prep will hold its free PSAT National Practice Day on Saturday, May 3 at locations around the country and live online.  Students will take the PSAT practice test, which will help familiarize them with the content.  After taking the test, each participant will receive a personalized detailed performance analysis.
