I got a 1370 out of 1520 on the new PSAT. I believe I’m quite possibly in the 99 percentile for national merit. I took the old SAT for the first time in December and will be taking it next week. Scored 1850 which is low for my standards.
@r4cheh What was your selection index psat score?
208
@kyrieIrving2 208
You would get in the 98th percentile at the least. It’s hard to say right now what the percentiles will be for each score on the new sat
I’ll toss this out there, but take it with a grain of salt since my test-taking days are (thank goodness) many years in the past. I’ve enjoyed doing the SAT daily question for some years now (started when D was applying to college and never deleted the bookmark), and I tried a couple of the new practice tests a couple of weeks ago. Personal opinion: I think the new one is a lot harder in some respects. May reflect different teaching/learning philosophies, but I would recommend that anyone taking the new one do as many of the practice tests as possible. (That wasn’t bad advice with the old one either.)
