Shawnee Mission PSAT Tutoring FAQ
The Preliminary SAT, or PSAT, is a standardized test, and is also referred to as the National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test, or NMSQT. It is designed to help students practice for the SAT and is given once a year in the fall, usually in the month of October. It is important to potentially improve on the exam so you can earn scholarships and gauge where you are in terms of preparing for the SAT. A private PSAT tutor can try to help you earn your best scores. Call Varsity Tutors' educational directors to find an expert PSAT tutor in Shawnee Mission, KS, to try to help you get ready on test day.
Recently, there were many changes made to the PSAT. There are now three versions of the exam, including the PSAT/NMSQT, PSAT 10, and PSAT 8/9. The PSAT/NMSQT is the most similar to the original SAT and is given in the 10th or 11th grade. The PSAT 10 has the same content as the NMSQT version, but it can't be used for scholarship qualification. It is taken in the spring of 10th grade. The PSAT 8/9 is used to measure student progress in 8th and 9th grade. All versions of the exam are given over two hours and 45 minutes, and test evidence-based reading and writing and math skills. An expert PSAT tutor in Shawnee Mission, KS, is a great way to try to help you prepare for your exam.
Our educational directors in Shawnee Mission will find you a PSAT tutor who might help you maximize your study time. You could learn how to retain the most information in the smallest amount of time. The tutor has been through the exam and knows the information like the back of their hand, so you will be taught only the information that you need to know. You could receive up-to-date and frequent progress reports that will allow you to figure out the areas that you still need to work on. You could begin feeling more confident once you start understanding the information that you once thought was impossible to learn.
Private tutoring is a very convenient option. You can schedule an in-person meeting anywhere that you feel comfortable, including your own house. There is also a live learning platform that allows for face-to-face online sessions. We can match you with a PSAT tutor in Shawnee Mission who is passionate about the test and can instill that passion in you to create a truly enjoyable learning experience.
