How Should You Study for the PSAT?

The PSAT is just around the corner. This year the PSAT will be administered on October 16th. If you’re a student, or know one, here’s how to prep best for the upcoming test:

Don’t worry about memorizing – the PSAT is based off the knowledge you have right now from your high school classes. The PSAT wants to see you are working with right now.
Review class notes – Writing, critical reading and math problem-solving are all tested on the PSAT. Take some time to review your class notes for any relevant subjects to polish their skills. If it’s been a while since you worked on Geometry problems, for example, you may want to do a review of the basic formats. 
Polish test taking strategies – While the PSAT tests what you already know, there are specific strategies to taking the test that can help you focus, save time and score better during test day. 
These strategies are exactly what we’ll be covering in our free series of webinars during “PSAT Week” – October 10th through 17th.
