Lick-Wilmerding’s College Counseling Office and Compass Education Group will administer a FREE at-home Digital PSAT to students in the 10th grade and 11th grade.
The Digital PSAT mimics the computer-based test — question type, content, timing, duration, and adaptive structure — so students will get an early feel for what’s to come in fall 2023.
DATE & TIME
Online Digital PSAT is available anytime between October 7th through October 15th.
The registration deadline is one week before the testing window opens. We will send you a detailed confirmation the week of the administration with a link to begin the program; you can take the test anytime during the open testing window.
After testing, students may join us for a free strategy session
