I didn't take the psats, but I took the
sats twice - once in 7th grade (as part of
an evaluation type thing) and once in 10th
grade. I would imagine the psats and the
sats are pretty similar.
If you test well, they shouldn't be that
bad at all. The info that you have to
know is pretty standard. The most
important thing is logic - come at
everything from a logical standpoint.

Well the psat is a practice sat for the
entrance exam into college. Different
from the stanford achievement tests you
take with the school.

Okay, for someone who has long since
graduated from high school and has been to
college this is going to sound pretty
stupid - but what do you mean by entrance
exam? I don't remember ever having to
take an entrance exam for college...

Well..Its not exactly an entrance exam.
But it determines what colleges you go to
and if you go to college at all. If you
do really badly you maybe stuck at
community college for a long time...But if
you do very well you can get accepted to a
lot of college and possibly
scholarships...

Oh. I get it now.  we didn't do psats
when I was in high school. It's not that
we didn't have them (i mean, it was only
five years ago  ),
but I don't remember myself or any of my
friends taking them.

Dont worry about it, the psat counts for
absolutely nothing. So dont sweat it...

There is something it counts for... I
think you have to take it to be considered
for membership in the national honors
society or something...

I dont know about elsewhere, but here in
texas they dont mean squat. And to get
into honors society you have to have like
3.6 gpa or something.
