<p>I'm a junior, and I previously thought I had a chance at NM. I've been scoring low 2200s in the blue book, and since the PSAT is a little different, I thought I would buy a prep book just for the hell of it. I got a 192 on my first barrons practice test. I'll admit I wasn't focusing very much and it wasn't really a good test taking day...but for my sanity... Is the barrons book harder than the actual PSAT? I mean I scored a 197 last year with no prep... Am I just getting dumber...?</p>
<p>The Barron’s PSAT book I used didn’t have a conversion table … how did you arrive at 192?</p>
<p>And yes, Barron’s is harder. You are not getting dumber :).</p>
<p>Hahaha well that’s good to know! </p>
<p>And it didn’t come with one I just googled it and a conversion chart came up</p>
