Hello,
In a few weeks, I will be taking the PSAT 8/9 at my school. To prepare a little bit, I took a practice SAT, but I know the scoring is much different. Could someone give me an approximate conversion so I know what I could expect to get on the PSAT 8/9? Try to factor in how it is much easier, there are less questions, and the score is much lower.
Thanks!
There is no conversion except perhaps comparing by User Percentile (not national percentile) for grade level.

The College Board designed the tests such that you would score the same on either test taken on the same day. Much growth (score increase) is expected by the time most students take the SAT spring of junior year or fall of senior year.
