<p>Is there any disadvantage to taking the PSAT more than once? If trying to go for NMS when he is a junior?</p>
<p>I don’t see any disadvantage, but wouldn’t you take it as a sophomore and then again as a junior, not a freshman?</p>
<p>No. There are only advantages.</p>
<p>Take it if you can.</p>
<p>My school allows freshman, sophmore and Junior to take the PSAT></p>
<p>No if you are charged money. </p>
<p>Go to the GCs office and pick up the PSAT student guide for this year. It has a practice test that you can give yourself. This wont cost you a dime and you will get the results as soon as you score it. </p>
<p>Generally speaking it doesnt make a lot of sense to focus on PSAt/SAT/ACT before Jr year unless you plan to graduate early. Students who are older and have completed their Math and English sequence do best.</p>
<p>You can if you want to. I did it and this year will be the third time taking it. Even if you don’t do well, it will show you how much you actually have to study.</p>
<p>It won’t hurt to take it, but it really won’t help much to take it two years prior to when it counts. Don’t worry about it yet; it is not worth putting that much pressure on yourself this early. Enjoy your freshman year - make friends, participate in activities, and try to do well in your classes.</p>
