Great Britain and Ireland (long attached to the European continent) were now islands, and cultural history was about to change. The Celtic people occupied great stretches of land across central Europe by 500 BC. They first arrived in Ireland around 300 BC, subsequently controlling and influencing this land that the powerful Roman culture never reached.
For juniors, the PSAT/NMSQT is a chance to get in the running for the National Merit Scholarships, although in New Jersey the competition is quite rough as our state traditionally requires one of the nationâs highest index scores (see the National Merit organizationâs website for more details).
Also listed on your PSAT score report is your Selection Index (SI). This score is the sum of all three PSAT sections. So for instance if your scores were the same as the average 11th grade PSAT scores for 2014, your SI would be a 140.8.
