PSAT/NMSQT Scores Released - Next Steps

 

Greetings Class of 2027, 2028, 2029 Students and Families,

PSAT/NMSQT Student Score Reports from the October 2025 test administration at Cathedral High School are available at studentscores.collegeboard.org.

Students should have received an email or text notification from the College Board that scores are available. Class of 2027 and 2028 students should use their existing College Board account to access their score report.  Please do not create another account. Class of 2029 students may need to create a new account.  If a student chose to participate in BigFuture by providing their mobile phone number during testing, they may also view their score on the BigFuture mobile app.  Please review the linked document below for an understanding of your scores, next steps, etc. There is valuable advice that helps connect scores to personalized test preparation and skill development.

If you have any questions on accessing your account and/or understanding your score report, please contact Ms. Pivonka or your school counselor.
