Juniors: Taking the PSAT/NMSQT gives you an opportunity to qualify as a National Merit Scholar if you score in the top 1% in Texas. It's an extremely prestigious recognition. For more information on what it means to qualify as a National Merit Scholar, visit www.nationalmerit.org/s/1758/interior.aspx?sid=1758&gid=2&pgid=1879.
**NOTE: This is not the college entrance tests the SAT or ACT. To register for those weekend tests you must do that directly through their websites: sat.org or act.org. Additionally, starting this year the PSAT will no longer serve as a waiver for the dual credit TSIA2 requirement. A passing score on the math and/or English TSIA2 will be needed to enroll in dual credit courses for the following school year.
Payment details are available in the email sent to students. Registration is not considered complete until payment is received. Questions can be directed to Christina Stover at
