Silly mistakes on PSAT math?

<p>I took the PSAT in October and I got a 62 on math. I got 7 problems wrong, and skipped one. Since you get the Score Report which online shows you all the questions you got wrong, I redid all 8 math questions, and was able to get 6 of them right with no major trouble.</p>

<p>I’m not sure why, maybe I was rushing on the test. It wasn’t any new concepts or anything I learned since then. What could have caused me to get 6 questions wrong on the test that I found fairly simple 2 months later?</p>

<p>The SAT sucks, pretty much. Take the ACT, because it doesn’t use small fine print to make you get questions wrong that you should get right. I got one wrong on the PSAT thing about a spinner, which said less than OR EQUAL or something, and missing keywords like that made me get it wrong. That’s why. Other reasons too, but bottom line, SAT shows relatively no skills.</p>

<p>A lack of time possibly. Or just test anxiety.</p>
