PSAT Results

<p>Hello,</p>

<p>I recently got back my PSAT scores from my school (I know they're really late... my counselor was using them for deciding college recommendations). Last year, in 10th grade, I got a combined score of 220, but this year, my score dropped to 216! I thought I did pretty well, but my scores dropped... </p>

<p>Will colleges see this negatively? I took SAT I on Nov 1, just two weeks after the PSAT, and got over 2300... </p>

<p>Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>Colleges don't care about your PSAT score. It is not even something you report on college applications. The only thing it matters for is the National Merit Scholarship program. Whether you qualify for that depends on your state. In some states a 216 will be high enough. In others it will not.</p>
