[quote=Anonymous]I didn't have my DD prep for the PSAT when she took it in 10th grade because I wanted to see where she may need additional help rather than jumping in right away with prep. Also, our school's college counselors discourage prep for the PSAT since kids will get so burned out on all the prep and testing that takes place over the 11th grade (and sometimes beginning of 12th grade) year. However, I know some parents did have their kids have some level of prep for the PSAT taken in 11th grade (which is the ones that count for the National Merit). I suppose if you really think your child could be in the running for National Merit level scoring then maybe a little test prep wouldn't hurt; however, I would be careful not to overload your child with too much prep - it gets exhausting.[/quote]
