SAT and PSAT

In-School Test Information

All students in grades 9, 10, and 11 will have two standardized testing days during the school year: one in October and one in March or April.  No action is needed on the part of parents or students to register.  Students will be told their testing room as the test approaches.  On the fall date, sophomores and juniors will take the PSAT/NMSQT, commonly called just “the PSAT.”  As of 2023, the test is given digitally, with most students testing on their personal computers using the College Board’s testing app Bluebook.  Anyone whose computer can’t run Bluebook will be given a school Chromebook on which to test.  Students with College Board approved accommodations will receive them on the test.  

On that same testing day, freshmen will take the NWEA Map test, which, like the PSAT, is given digitally and has two sections: Math and English.  

On the spring date, freshmen will take another version of the NWEA Map test, sophomores will take the PSAT 10, and juniors will take the SAT.  Like in the fall, the tests will be given on computers.  

Saturday SAT Information

Wilton High School also hosts SATs on all of the Saturday test dates offered by the College Board except the August test.  For these Saturday tests, students must register and pay for the test online through the College Board website.  Spots are limited, and students from all over the area will be reserving spots here, so we suggest students sign up well before the deadline.  If Wilton High School is full, they will be directed to the next closest test center, which may be quite far away.
