Psat 2008

Is anyone else a little nervous for the 2008 PSATs?

Last year I took it as a sophomore and got a 193, even though I have to admit I did a lot better on it than on practice tests at home. Was the curve ridiculously low last year or something?

Anyway, I've been taking tons of practice PSATs... does anyone know if most people tend do better on the real PSAT/SAT than on practice tests?

I did better on my SAT than on the practice tests, but I think it just depends on if you get nervous during tests or if you focus more.
Anyway, don't sweat it.

I'm not too worried about it, rather I'm more concerned with the SAT.

First time taking it - I'll be a sophomore! I'm slightly excited about it.

I'm kinda nervous for it. I want to attend University of Nebraska Omaha and then University of Nebraska Medical Center, and being a national merit scholar earns you a full ride in addition to them paying you at least 2000 dollars a year in awards. It would be nice to get it (even if state school is dirt cheap anyway = D ).
