The PSAT is a preliminary version of the SAT offered to high school freshman, sophomores, and juniors. Many students take the PSAT exam as a way to prepare for the SAT. The PSAT is two hours and ten minutes long, with 125 questions to test math, critical reading, and writing skills. However, the PSAT will not help with your college admissions. Why take a test that doesn't count for college admission? Taking the PSAT makes you automatically eligible for a scholarship from the National Merit Scholarship Corporation. That means that the highest scoring students may win scholarship money. The National Merit Scholarship Corporation awards over $50 million to college students.
