Framingham PSAT Tutoring FAQ
The Preliminary SAT, or PSAT, is an experience just about every high schooler has. It is designed to prepare your child for the notorious Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT), and also called the National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (NMSQT). In fact, the PSAT/ NMSQT taken in grade 10 or 11 can qualify your student for a scholarship via a National Merit Scholarship Corporation program. In fact, a version of the PSAT can be taken as early as the 8th grade. First, however, they have to practice.

The new PSAT has been reorganized to reflect the changes to the SAT. It includes an Evidence-Based Reading and Writing Section, which includes words in context, informational graphics, and command of evidence. Texts of varying complexity will have to be read and analyzed. In addition, the Math Section includes algebra, problem solving, and other topics that have to be understood. The tutor can assess what your child knows, and identify their weaknesses before proceeding. A targeted, personalized study plan can then be created. No matter what, we could help your child find expert PSAT tutors in Framingham, whose goal is to maximize their potential on the exam.
