<p>I received a 211 on my PSAT, does this score show in what range my SAT score in October will be?
740 Math
740 Writing
630 Reading
Also, anyone that's good with reading, would you mind giving me a few tips? Thank you so much!!!</p>

<p>There is a blurb about this on the main CC site
[PSAT-SAT</a> I Score Correlation - Ask The Dean](<a href=“http://www.collegeconfidential.com/dean/archives/000052.htm]PSAT-SAT”>http://www.collegeconfidential.com/dean/archives/000052.htm)</p>

<p>Look at the pinned posts in the SAT-preparation subforum to see if there are reading tips. One thing you can do is to spend the time reading classic type novels.

<p>Thank you so much! But regarding the reading; I’m taking the SAT in October for my final time :stuck_out_tongue: So I don’t know if reading with such a short amount of time would help.</p>

<p>If you took that PSAT in sophomore year, your scores should increase dramatically with a little prep and an extra year of classes</p>

<p>I took the PSAT in 9th grade and got a 150. Now I’m scoring above 2k on the SAT. If you practice on your own time for a while, your score should improve dramatically.</p>

<p>Your junior year PSAT should be a reasonable indicator of your SAT score, assuming you study somewhat. If you don’t study at all, it’ll probably be lower. If you study really hard, it’ll probably be higher. I got a 203 on my junior year PSAT and then studied somewhat for the June SAT and got a 2060.</p>

<p>Oh I’m a rising senior, and I just took that PSAT last week. And I’m taking the October SAT…Do you guys think the scores will be consistent?</p>

<p>The PSAT is offered in October. What do you mean you took the PSAT last week?</p>

<p>^ As perazziman said, the PSAT is only offered in the fall. I would clarify this if I were you especially since, as a rising senior, the past October administration of the PSAT (for you) would’ve been the NMSQT (National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test).</p>
