; of the PSAT is its similarity to
] the college boards scholastic
1 aptitude test recognized for ad
mission to many colleges.
Your PSAT will give you an
! early indication of how you
j will probably perform on the
; SAT. If you take that test,
| many colleges now report to
I school counselors on the stan
dards, including the admission
I standards of students that have
been accepted for admission,
j Thus, by comparing your SAT
I scores with the students that
i are admitted to a particular
college, you are apt to gain a
, better ability in which to judge
< your chances of being admitted
; to that particular college.
[ The PSAT is also used by
; some scholarship sponsors in
j consideration of applicants for
: awards.
, One of the main purposes of
; the PSAT is to help students to
; make decisions about college.
PSAT will be administered
Oct. 18 at the high school be
ginning at about 8:30.
Juniors and seniors who may
wish to take the test are elig
ible. Seniors in National Honor
Society who wish to be con
sidered for certain scholarships
should seriously consider tak
ing the exam.

Scholastic notices were sent
home with students last week.
In many cases, poor study hab
its and poor use of time were
the reason for these notices. It
is suggested that parents re
view the student’s study pro
cedure to see if improvements
can be made. Parents are al
ways welcome to come in to
discuss the progress of the stu
dent.
