What’s the difference between the PSAT and the SAT? The PSAT (Pre-Scholastic Assessment Test) is a “practice run” for taking the real SAT. Colleges do not see scores from the PSAT. Typically taken by sophomores and juniors, the PSAT can be important because juniors who achieve a good score on the PSAT can qualify for a National Merit Scholarship. The SAT (Scholastic Assessment Test) is taken by juniors and seniors and is used by colleges/universities to help make admission decisions.

PSAT Registration: Students interested in taking the PSAT exam on Oct. 16th, must register by Sept. 27th. The link is available on the WHS website or you can go to: www.TotalRegistration.net/PSAT/ 242650 Register by Sept. 27 if you wish to take the exam at Wayzata High School.
