Psat Tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

<p>just thought i'd put that out there.</p>

<p>any thoughts, comments, etc. about the PSAT tomorrow?</p>

<p>I hope it's easier than the SAT because if it is, I'm pretty confident.</p>

<p>Good Luck! I'm glad I have that over with. </p>

<p>However, having to take the SAT for National Merit was even more stressful for me than the PSAT. I hadn't planned on taking the SAT at all.</p>

<p>What are you all doing to prepare? I'm quite nervous :(</p>

<p>Blue Book.......vocab list..........barron's math SAT.........praying(Lol)</p>

<p>I'm reading from Gruber's. It's pretty good. A couple weeks ago I skimmed through Barron's 2400, and about 4 months ago I read through Up Your Score. </p>

<p>I'm saving Blue Book for when I take the SAT, since the SAT is harder than the PSAT anyway so it wouldn't be good prep.</p>

<p>I need around a 213 to get NMS, so I can only miss about 5-6 questions I think.</p>

<p>Wish me luck =[</p>

<p>Does anyone feel like the practice test in this year's PSAT booklet was too easy? I scored a 230 and I was pretty surprised (been scoring low 220's in Barron's, which is all I've been using to prepare). Oh and what's the NM Semi cutoff in NJ? I'm not even sure if a 230 is going to cut it in this state...</p>

<p>YES!!!...the practice test in this year's PSAT booklet was EXTREMELY easy. I highly doubt the actual test will be like that (I sure hope so, though) :)</p>

<p>You guys should go over a vocab list that was posted that had previous words from the SAT on it.. I forget. It should be on the previous page or so.. but I looked over it once and two of the words ended up being on the PSAT and I'm pretty sure they were answers too.</p>

<p>i scored a 211 on the PSAT booklet :(. i made 3 really careless errors in math :(</p>

<p>i thought the critical reading was hard though...</p>

<p>geezus....</p>

<p>I'm feeling okay for this PSAT. Took a bunch of practice sections from the blue book and did the practice PSAT test that came with registration.</p>

<p>I managed to get a 76 in writing on the practice PSAT, which I felt pretty good about considering I got a 48 in writing when I took it last year as a sophomore. I took the other PSAT sections before I had done any practice, so I didn't get in the 70s on those. But, in the blue book I managed to do alright, though it was hard to tell because they give a range rather than a flat score.</p>

<p>I'm hoping that I manage at least a 220.</p>

<p>Good luck to everyone else! Hopefully we won't need it though.</p>

<p>I got an 80 on Writing, 80 on Math, and 70 (damn questions with two possible answers) on CR. So, yeah...Probably too easy, seeing as I had circled all of the correct answers on the CR as an alternate choice, I could have managed a 240 (especially given the fact that I had massive interruptions/noise while doing this). Hopefully, I'll do well tomorrow.</p>

<p>Yikes! Thats a godly score!</p>

<p>An 800 in math is supposedly the easiest to get for most ppl, at least thats what my family tells me. However, I've never managed to get an 800. Closest I've ever gotten was a 760 over the summer one time. Usually when I get questions wrong though, it's because I misread them or something like that. Hopefully that won't happen much tomorrow.</p>

<p>Yeah I thought it was waaaaayyy too easy. Hopefully the real thing is that easy as well =]</p>
