Hey Everyone :) I'm Kate and a level 2 mod on here. I've had this account since July 2004, so I've been on here since I was 13! Wow ... crazy for me to think how long ago that was. I will admit I don't check in as often as I once did, but being away at college, being in a sorority, and having a job when I'm not at school is very time consuming. I still try to help out as much as possible, and if you send me a question I WILL answer it. This site helped me a LOT when I was in high school and had a lot of questions, and I'm here to help anyone who needs it :) Feel free to write in my forum or send me a question any time!

im 14 in the 9th grade and i took the PSAT and i got my scores back and made 1340.i made a 48 in reading,39 in mathematics,and 47 in writing skills.is that good? me and this other boy where the only people in the large group who took the PSAT who were still in algerbra 1 so the math was harder because of that!but is my grade o.k. seeing how it is my first time takin it and im in the 9th grade?
That's not too bad since the PSAT doesn't have the essay. I got a 1520 (or somewhere around that) on my PSAT my sophomore year. The requirements to take it that year were to be 15+ years old and have taken geometry. I was only 14 and hadn't taken geometry yet. I was the underdog and beat my older sister by 10 points (100 when converted).
For your age and how much you've learned you did okay. Once you take geometry &/or algebra 2 you'll do a lot better. Take it again next year and, if your school offers one, take and SAT Prep class. My school has a prep class that we get a credit for taking just like any other class. I took the prep class and the PSAT and did a whole lot better the second time around. I took the SAT immediately after taking the prep class and I got a 1720 on the new SAT. My friend who did the same as I did made a 1940 on her SAT which is REALLY good!
The best suggestion I have is for when you become a junior and it's time to take the SAT. Take the SAT as soon as you can after completing a math or prep class. It's when you'll have the most knowledge and do the best.
