2026 PSAT: October 7, 2026

The PSAT is a practice test that prepares students for success on the SAT (Scholastic Aptitude Test). Additional information for students and parents about the PSAT can be found at this College Board link. Once a student is registered for the test, they will receive a PSAT Student Guide to assist them in preparing for the exam. Juniors who do very well on the PSAT may qualify for the NMSQT Scholarship Competition. This competition is not available to sophomores. Test results are usually received in late December. Students will receive a score report that gives specific information about their correct/incorrect answers, difficulty level of questions and content each question assessed. SAHS counselors will be available to help explain results to students.
