Naperville PSAT Tutoring FAQ
Planning to take the SAT, but not quite sure you're ready yet? Well, that's why the PSAT exists. What is the PSAT? It's a preliminary version of the standardized test once known as the Scholastic Aptitude Test or the SAT. The main purpose of this practice exam is to help students who want to attend universities and colleges prepare to take the real test. Generally, the idea is that if you score better on the Preliminary SAT, you'll score better on the real deal. A tutor could help you pursue your test score goals. If you're preparing for the PSAT, let the Varsity Tutors educational directors connect you with a tutor in Naperville, IL.
One of the other major benefits of the PSAT is its ability to open doors to awards, such as National Merit Scholarships. Approximately $180 million worth of scholarships are granted to students who attain high PSAT scores. Earning a scholarship could be the key to you attending the college or university of your dreams. But you have to score well, which is something your tutor can try to help you do.
With a PSAT tutor, you'll be working with an expert who knows what it takes to excel at this test. And, because they're so familiar with the exam, they will have some tips to share with you to try to help you score well. We can find you a talented PSAT tutor in Naperville who can work with students at all proficiency levels.
This exam is also known as the National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test, or NMSQT. In 2015, it was revised in order to reflect the various revisions made to the 2016 SAT. One of the most notable changes to the preliminary exam is the scoring scale. There are two sections: the evidence-based reading and writing component, and the math component. Varsity Tutors will connect you with an experienced and trusted PSAT tutor in Naperville who might help you score better on both sections.
Another benefit of the PSAT is that you can take it up to three times during your high school career. That means you have three chances to practice, so you can achieve the score of your dreams on the SAT. And, with a tutor matched with you by Varsity Tutors, you can learn at whatever time is best for you, in your own home, or another convenient location. You can even learn online, in face-to-face web sessions. Contact Varsity Tutors' educational directors for help connecting with a PSAT tutor near Naperville, IL today.
