How do PSAT scores compare to SSAT scores?

<p>I'm planning to take the SSAT. If I received 95 percentile for college bound juniors on the PSAT, would my SSAT percentile be higher or the same?</p>

<p>Sorry I'm kind of clueless about these things. It should probably be lower since the SSAT is for private school applicants right?</p>

<p>other details:
Writing: 91 percentile
Math: 99 percentile
Reading: 97 percentile</p>

<p>What do you think my SSAT percentile would be (about)?</p>

<p>Hard to say....SSAT could be lower because it is out of a self-selected pool of very bright young people whereas the PSAT is everyone who plans on going to college. My son's SSAT's as an eighth grader were 85%; his practice PSAT as a sophomore is 96%. Different years, so hard to compare.</p>

<p>If I were you, I'd just stick with the PSAT. The SSAT is designed for younger students, and the school will probably prefer the PSAT for you.</p>

<p>I actually got a lower PSAT percentile than SSAT. I was 98% PSAT and 99% SSAT.(Taken sophmore year within 1 month of each other)
Not much of a difference, but was just reporting mine for the hell of it.</p>
