PSSS: Practice. Prepare. Improve. Early practice and the right tools help students improve and succeed. The PSSS provides schools, districts, and other educational organizations with an early assessment of students academic skills as well as tools to help students improve.
The test measures critical reading, mathematics, and writing skills using the disclosed 2014 PSAT/NMSQT Saturday test form. Educators can use the PSSS to help guide and inspire students as they plan for their future.
PSSS Provides: Practice for the SAT Students can use the PSSS to familiarize themselves with the types of questions, instructions, and format they will encounter on the SAT given through January 2016.
Flexible Administration Schools choose how and when to use the PSSS, any time between Jan. 12, 2015, and March 27, 2015. Schools can also provide special accommodations, such as dictionaries or extended time for English language learners.
Skills Assessments for Students Like the PSAT/NMSQT Score Report Plus, the PSSS score report provides personalized feedback on each students skills and can identify areas for improvement to better prepare him or her for college.
College-Preparation Tools for Students Students who take the PSSS gain access to My College QuickStart, the College Boards online college and career planning tool. Through My College QuickStart, students can explore and plan for the future with My Online Score Report, My SAT Study Plan, My Personality, My Major & Career Matches, My College Matches, and My AP Potential.
Robust Tools and Reports for Schools Schools receive the Summary of Answers and Skills (SOAS) reports, which aggregate test results by grade and overall group performance in each academic area. In addition, schools receive access to AP Potential, which helps identify students who may benefit from the Advanced Placement Program.
