My son is 2017 and is eagerly awaiting his PSAT score, which I believe will be released on Jan 7. It will be interesting to see how it shakes out as kids evaluate their success on the new PSAT and whether that compels them to try the old SAT.
He took the SAT in November and was pleased with his scores except for the essay. We were also told to take the old SAT because according to several counselors, it will take 8-10 administrations of the new SAT for colleges to really understand the scores. Don’t know if that’s really true but we fell for it!
