<p>Since results should be coming in soon, It would be relevant to ask this.</p>

<p>How many juniors took the 2012 PSAT vs those who took it in 2011 (and 2010 if possible)?</p>

<p>I don’t think that there’s a national PSAT report, but if you cared that much, you could add up all the numbers in the state summaries. The national numbers don’t matter too much, as the cutiffs are on a state-by-state basis.
