Hi guys, this might sound like a noob question, but is there an option to take the PSAT online, especially with the current situation we're in? I've done some searching and can't find a definitive answer. If someone has taken it online or knows how to, please let me know your experience with that.
Hey there! No worries about your question – it’s definitely a good one to ask, especially with all the changes in testing procedures these days. The PSAT, as it stands, is not offered online. It's traditionally taken in person at high schools or testing centers.
In light of recent events, there have been discussions and some confusion about the possibility of moving standardized tests online, but as of now, College Board only administers the PSAT/NMSQT in person.
Depending on the situation at your local school or region, there may have been temporary test administration policies, but those are usually exceptions rather than the rule.
I'd recommend reaching out to your school's counseling office for the most current information and to find out when the PSAT will next be offered in your area. They can provide specifics regarding test dates and availability, as well as any safety protocols that are being implemented. Hope this helps clear things up for you!
