College Board Exams
The preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT) is a program cosponsored by the College Board and National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC). It's a standardized test that provides firsthand practice for the SAT®. It also gives you a chance to enter NMSC scholarship programs and gain access to college and career planning tools.
The PSAT/NMSQT measures
Critical reading skills
Math problem-solving skills
The PSAT 8/9 is a test that will help you and your teachers figure out what you need to work on most so that you’re ready for college when you graduate from high school. It tests the same skills and knowledge as the SAT, PSAT/NMSQT, and PSAT 10 — in a way that makes sense for your grade level.
The SAT Test is a college entrance exam. The SAT tests Evidence Based Reading and Writing and Mathematics. Scores on each section range from 200 to 800 with a perfect score being 1600.
Tomball ISD provides all 11th graders the opportunity to take the SAT during the school day in April.
