2014 Practice PSAT/NMSQT test discussion

<p>Has anyone taken it? If so what did you think about it and what scores did you get? </p>

<p>Yeah I took it and got a sad score :frowning: I really want the NMS but my state’s req score is the highest. </p>

<p>I took it last year in October. Totally winged it, but I got 235. Took the SAT in January and got 2230, so I think for every test in life, everything depends on how you’re feeling that day and how lucky you are. Don’t stressed out, though! I know many smart, successful people who were admitted to amazing colleges without being NMSFs. I did really enjoy the CR passages, though, but I will fully admit that I’m weird.</p>

<p>What’d you think of the individual sections? I felt critical reading was harder than usual but reading and math( except for question 18 which was BS) were easier than normal</p>

<p>Btw I got a 225</p>

<p>Stupid question, but how many Psat tests are available internationally each year?</p>

<p>idk really about it, but I got a 222. (70CR, 80M, 72W). The reading passages were a bit harder. What’s surprising is that from 1 mistake in W to 2 mistakes there means a fall of 5 points. </p>

<p>Ya i hate the scoring of the psat. I got 4 wrong on the writing section and was shot down to a 68. Its hard to stay in te 700s range</p>

<p>Ugh, I keep making careless mistakes in the math section… :frowning: My score for this practice test was above the cutoff for my state, but it’s not a safe score. Also taking the October SAT, so I’m starting to get a bit worried…</p>

<p>@Spurs2014 79 CR, 76 M, 80 W. I don’t remember any of the questions after a year, but I really loved the two language sections. Reading about Matisse was interesting, and I was pretty amused when everyone started tweeting about the cow. I thought the math section was easier than on the actual SAT, but that might’ve just been me. How did it go for you?</p>
