<p>I'm a junior who took the 2012 PSAT this October, but for some reason I got this random email from collegeboard telling me to prepare for the December SAT by:</p>
<p>Learn from explanations of the PSAT/NMSQT questions you
missed the SAT has the same question types.</p>
<p>They gave me an access code so I went on the website and apparently I got a 173 on the 2011 PSAT which I never took? I even looked at the questions to confirm that they weren't the same as the 2012 PSAT.</p>
<p>I got the same email and it was my PSAT score from 2011
However, I don’t know why yours came up when you never took the 2011 one</p>
<p>Should I talk to collegeboard about it? The score is pretty bad…</p>
<p>Haha I received this email as well and got really excited until I realized it was just last years’ scores :(</p>
<p>So should I bother talking to collegeboard about the random fake score?</p>
<p>I would if I were you. You don’t want scores that are not yours floated around!</p>
<p>hi… i know this may not be relevant to the topic…
but i was wondering if it was useful to do the PSAT and if it’s not a waste of time ?</p>
<p>If you are near the 99percentile its worth your time because you could get scholarship money. Otherwise its only useful as a loose predictor of your SAT score.</p>
