did anyone else do horrible on the PSAT and well on the SAT?

<p>After my PSAT scores I completely panicked. I was pretty much ready to throw in the towel and go to UNH (not that it's a bad school, but my dad's alumni and I knew I would get it). I don't think they're a very good predictor. I got a 63 in critical reading on my PSAT and a 720 on the SAT. I didn't really prep for that section, I maybe just looked over some vocab.</p>

<p>PSAT-151
Sat-1900</p>

<p>mine's not as drastic as most of these, but I went from 2250 sat to a 208 psat. Enough to be the difference between commended and semifinalist in national merit for FL =/</p>

<p><em>off topic</em> </p>

<p>Claire, are you from NH?</p>
