The PSAT/NMSQT is the practice test for the SAT and qualifying test for the National Merit Scholarship. Students can use their scores to qualify for the NMSQT in their Junior year. This test is optional but recommended for Juniors who will be taking the SAT in their Senior year. The test is also available to Sophomores who may want more practice opportunities.
The PSAT/NMSQT is fully digital and students will complete the assessment on a school provided device on one of the following test dates at Kalani High School:
- October 18, 2024
- October 22, 2024
- October 24, 2024
Testing will be held from 8:15 am to 11:00 am and students will be released to their classes after testing. You will be able to mark your preference for test date when you pre-register.
To register for the PSAT:
- Pre-register online: https://forms.gle/wy98ZSHVnnaG4k929
- Submit payment during the registration window
- Receive confirmation of test date via email
Upon submission of the google form, you will receive an email with information on how to submit payment for the exam ($15 test fee). Completing the online form does NOT confirm your student's registration - payment must be received and a receipt will be provided as confirmation. If we reach capacity before the end of the registration period, a waitlist will be opened - turn in your payment early to guarantee a spot!
Preferred test dates are assigned based on when payment is received. Parents and students will receive an email confirming their assigned test day once registration has closed.
If you have any questions, please contact Test Coordinator Jaime Edwards at jaime.edwards@k12.hi.us.
