Use the PSAT results to figure out where your weaknesses are, and put your time into studying for the real SAT.

If you’re just talking about taking a practice test, take as many as you can, then go out and take the real SAT as many times as you can. Only your top score matters, and the more practice you can get, the better.

Good luck!

Well, you kind of have to take it as a junior, or at least you had to at my high school when I was there. And there’s no reason not to do so because it was free and worth scholarship money if you got a high enough score, which you didn’t really meet. So, yeah, you really don’t even have a choice. You kind of have to take it again.

If not, then forget about the PSAT and focus on SAT or ACT.

1) do you think that you did your best?

2) do you WANT to take it again?

3) do you truly think that you can do better on it this time than the first time?
