Various classrooms through out the building. Students will be given their testing location the morning of the PSAT, in their first class of the day.
What is the PSAT?
The PSAT measures critical reading, math problem-solving, and
writing skills developed over many years. Students won't have to recall facts from literature, history, or science, or complete math formulas, as this test measures reasoning and critical thinking skills.
All 9th graders will be taking the PSAT 8/9 digitally and will need to bring their PWCS laptop or iPad, and charger. Laptops or iPads should be fully charged. If your student does not have a device, they must see Mr Hansen or Mr. Miernik in the library BEFORE the test date. Loaner devices are limited on test day.
10th & 11th graders will take the PSAT/NMSQT test digitally and will need to bring their PWCS laptop or iPad, and charger. Laptops or iPads should be fully charged. If your student does not have a device, they must see Mr Hansen or Mr. Miernik in the library BEFORE the test date. Loaner devices are limited on test day.
Why Take the PSAT?
To get feedback about critical academic skills, to practice for the SAT Reasoning Test, to start getting ready for college, and to enter scholarship competitions.
