  1. Sophmore year is the best time to take the PSAT.

    If you are wondering when to take the SAT, the best time would be the middle of you Junior year, and then retake it if you are not happy with your score.

    If you need some help with the SAT here are some pointers on what you should do to prep for it:

    Well there are alot of SAT Prep books out there for example the College board SAT Prep book (the best one in my opinion), and the Kaplan one is a close 2nd. The Collegeboard SAT Prep book is excellent because it gives you alot of tips and tricks on how to crack the SAT and it ahs alot of practice questions and actual previous SAT tests from the test makers. Also once you finish the practice test you can go online and put in your answers and see your actual score. Which helps alot! Trust me.

    Your second option is to take a SAT prep course in your area. (That is if you cant study from a book). The SAT prep courses that I recommend (which are common everywere in the US) is the Kaplan course, and the TestMasters course.

    They are a bit expensive but will give you the information you need to succeed on the SAT.

    And the last and final option (if the book does not work and if you cannot take the course) there is a online website (which is totally free) called www.studybeans.com

    It helps you with practice problems, vocab words, and almost everything on the SAT.

    Good Luck! and hope this helps! =]


  2. You should take the PSAT both sophomore and junior year. Sophomore year is a practice for both the real SAT and junior year, where if you do well enough on the PSAT then, you'll qualify for National Merit scholarships.

    I took the PSAT sophomore year, and I'm going to take it next year, in my junior year.

  3. Take the PSAT for practice  your sophomore year in high school, and then take it again in fall of your junior year, when it counts for National Merit.

  4. in 10th grade because in 11th grade you're taking the real thing

  5. Most people take it their sophomore year to get used to the upcoming SATs, but it doesn't help with National Merit scholarships. But, if you decide to retake it your junior year (by the way, both of these are usually in October), then your score is automatically sent in for National Merit--if you score high enough in your state and the nation, you get recognized and a nice piece of scholarship money for college.

  6. 10th grade
