Schaumburg PSAT Tutoring FAQ
The PSAT, or Preliminary SAT, is an annually given standardized test, which helps students plan for the SAT. It's important due to the ability to help students plan for the ultra-important SAT exam, which helps college admissions boards determine which students should be admitted with their school and which should not. Given the ability of the SAT to be the deciding factor in whether or not each student gets into his or her dream school, it makes sense to prepare for it, and also by the same logic the PSAT, as well as possible.
