Here it is...the moment you've all been waiting for...PSATs! YAY! Here is more information...
The PSAT (Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test/National Merit Scholarship Competition) is scheduled for Wednesday, October 15, 2008 at Loyalsock Township High School. If you are college-bound, this test is a must for you! Even if you took the PSAT as a sophomore, we highly recommend you take it as a junior because ONLY juniors can qualify for the National Merit Scholarship Competition. Your test results will be returned to you before Christmas, and it is an excellent way to prepare for the SAT I in the winter/spring. Remember that the PSAT does not qualify as a College Entrance Exam and is not included on the high school transcript.
The cost of the test is $13.00, and checks should be made payable to Loyalsock Township High School. Any student who has difficulty paying the fee should contact either counselor about a possible fee waiver.
We will open registration for Juniors ONLY on October 1st. On October 8th, sophomores may begin registering for the exam. NO sophomore registration will be accepted before October 8th. Students should register in the Guidance Office.
When you register for the PSAT, you will be given an excellent study guide and preparation materials. USE THEM!!! Statistics support that those students who take advantage of the free preparation materials tend to do better on the test than those who do not prepare.
