ShineIn PSAT Info Session – Monday, September 16 from 7-8:30pm

The PSAT (Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test) is the preliminary test that provides experience and practice for the SAT. The PSAT/NMSQT taken during the Junior and Senior years of high school, however, does qualify for scholarships and can be saved for college records. Although the PSAT is not required, students who choose to participate in PSAT prep see higher scores nationally on the SAT as opposed to students who do not. Learn what to expect, topics most commonly tested on and gain some practice answering these questions. This free info session is presented by ShineIn Math, a “Best of Burlington” winner for Tutoring and Test Prep.
