[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mother of HS student. 4 tests required for graduation. PARCC tests this year for English 10 and Algebra 1; HSA for Biology and Government PSAT for 9, 10th, 11th. AP and IB exams are in May also [/quote] Why do kids take the PSAT so many times? Is it optional to do this? I feel like we just took it in 11th when I was in HS. [/quote] I don't know if it's the same at every school, but at Blair the school pays for them to take it in 9th and 10th grade too. Since it happens during the school day and parents don't pay for it, many probably aren't even aware it's happening. Doesn't really count for anything (except opening a Pandora's Box of college marketing emails), it's just practice. Doesn't hurt, I suppose. But, yeah, I was the same as you: took the PSAT once, the SAT once, and that was it.[/quote]
