PSAT Testing

As part of our college and career readiness efforts at Northbrook Middle School, we strive to set all students up for success. 
 
That’s why we’re offering the PSAT 8/9—the first test in the SAT Suite of Assessments—to our 8th grade students. 
 
Results from the PSAT 8/9 help us establish a baseline for each student as they start their high school journey. The results help us focus classroom instruction and support our students’ growth. 
 
Taking the PSAT 8/9 can also help our students to: 
▪ Understand their strengths, and what skills they need to work on. 
▪ Find out what AP® courses they’re ready to take. 
▪ Explore personalized career insights aligned to their score. 
 
The PSAT 8/9 is administered in a digital format that provides an overall easier testing experience for students. Watch this video to see what students can expect with the digital PSAT 8/9. Our students will take the PSAT 8/9 on October 29,2024 using their school issued device. For questions about the PSAT 8/9, please contact Katie Kangas at katie.kangas@gcpsk12.org or by phone at 678-407-7136.
