<p>Is the PSAT practice book that you get when you register easier than the actual test?</p>
<p>In my opinion it was, but I have no idea officially.</p>
<p>It was easier than the real PSAT thats for sure. This year’s practice booklet will be really useless, I believe, in predicting scores on the PSAT.</p>
<p>I thought the practice booklet was harder. :S</p>
<p>The 2007 PSAT practice test was the Wednesday 2005 real PSAT. I am looking at both of them now.</p>
<p>Wow.</p>
<p>That PSAT was RIDICULOUSLY easy.</p>
<p>^agree
today’s PSAT was much HARDER</p>
<p>Yeah, that practice test was a joke compared to today’s test.</p>
<p>I thought that the CR was harder on today’s test, but the math and writing seemed pretty equal.</p>
<p>yea that packet was ridiculously easy compared to today’s test. the math and CR were def harder.</p>
<p>Yeah today’s test was much harder.</p>
<p>yeah.. i wish i had the wednesday PSAT last year instead!</p>
<p>The practice test was definitely the 2005 Wed. test. My daughter had that one for her PSAT! When my son got his practice test, I pulled out my daughter’s PSAT booklet so he’d have an additional practice test … and that’s when I found out that they were one & the same. How hard/easy a particular test seems isn’t really relevant, though, because the NMS cutoff is based on percentiles … so you are “competing” with each other, not with the test itself. In other words, if the test is harder, it’s harder for everyone … there will be the same number of NMS scholars, so the cutoff score simply may be lower.</p>
