Feeling a little lost here. My son took the PSAT a while back and we haven't seen the scores yet. Does anyone know how I can find my child’s PSAT scores? Are they mailed to us or is there some online portal we have to check?
The PSAT scores aren't mailed to homes, so you'll want to look for them online. Your son's scores should be available through the College Board's online portal. If he's already created an account to register for the test, he can log in using the same credentials. The exact date when the scores are released can vary by region, but they usually start rolling out in December. If he hasn't set up an account yet, he can do so on the College Board website. It's a fairly straightforward process: he'll need some identification information and the PSAT/NMSQT access code, which he can get from his school if he doesn't have it.
Once he's logged in, he should see his scores under the 'PSAT/NMSQT' tab, along with some additional insights and tools for improvement. If there's any trouble finding the scores or if they're not up yet, it wouldn't hurt to have him check with his school counselor—they usually have the scoop on when scores will be uploaded and how to access them. Hope this clears things up!
