Test Preparation · PSAT Preparation

PSAT Preparation, built on a real plan.

PSAT 8/9, PSAT 10, and the National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test.

Who this is for

Eighth through eleventh graders taking the PSAT 8/9, PSAT 10, or PSAT/NMSQT - especially juniors within reach of National Merit recognition.

Common challenges

  • For juniors, one October morning determines National Merit eligibility
  • The PSAT is most students’ first timed, high-stakes standardized test
  • Math content overlaps Algebra II - often before students have finished it
  • Using PSAT results to build the eventual SAT plan

What preparation covers

  • PSAT 10-style packet work across both math modules
  • Early SAT-format familiarity: question styles, tools, and timing
  • Targeted Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra II review
  • Score report analysis that converts results into a study plan

How preparation is tailored

For National Merit candidates, Dr. Cheryl reverse-engineers the selection index from released tests and drills the highest-leverage content. For younger students, PSAT prep doubles as an early, low-pressure SAT head start.

Start with a skills evaluation.

One conversation tells you more than a semester of guesswork. No obligation - just a clear picture of where your student stands.
