Hey everyone! I'm taking the PSAT 10 this year and I'm trying to figure out the scoring system. What is the highest score someone can achieve on the PSAT 10? Thanks in advance!
Hello! The PSAT 10 follows the same scoring system as the regular PSAT/NMSQT. The test consists of two sections: Evidence-Based Reading and Writing (ERW) and Math. Each section is scored on a scale of 160 to 760, making the highest possible combined score on the PSAT 10 a 1520.
To gauge your performance, you can compare your score with the percentiles provided by the College Board, which indicate the percentage of students who scored lower than you. This can help you identify your strengths and areas for improvement as you prepare for the SAT. Remember, though, that the PSAT is meant to be a practice test, so use your score as a starting point and focus on growth. Good luck with your test!
