Only juniors.

9th and 10th grades are only practice. They don't count for anything and they don't go to colleges. NO PSAT ever goes to colleges.

PSAT is like Time Share sales pitch for SAT + College board collects a ton of student data to sell to colleges (a $billion dollar business).

October of junior year


FCPS administers the PSAT to sophomores, as well. Years ago (my current college junior was in the last class this applied to, IIRC) they also gave the PSAT 8/9 to freshmen. The College Board does not send those scores with official SAT results. The only time they matter for most kids (meaning outside of a few special programs that ask for testing) is if a student earns NMSF status.

No. Colleges never see PSAT scores. It’s just for National Merit and occasionally an out of school program asks for them (like a gifted summer program, etc. )

Do they get sent to colleges along with the SAT and other scores? If you take it in 9th and do badly is there any consequence to that?
