February 15, 2025 Standardized Testing
A Practice PSAT exam will be held Saturday, February 15, 2025
This exam is for 10th grade Phillips Academy Students only.
The Practice PSAT is a simulated PSAT administered by Compass Education Group. It is a digital exam that tests the same skills and knowledge as the College Board PSAT. The digital testing platform will replicate the PSAT to give students the same experience as taking College Board digital exams. Students will test on their own laptops or tablets. This test does not count in the admissions process and scores are only sent to students. The practice PSAT results together with the PreACT can be a guide toward the standardized test a student pursues in the college admissions process.
Registration runs 1/8 to noon Wednesday 1/22
Students are emailed a registration link.
The cost is $25 and will be deducted from the Course Materials Account. (This is an internal tuition account, not the Blue Card.)
Please contact [email protected] if you decide to skip the exam after you register. “No-Shows” will be charged if you don’t cancel.
