PSAT
In order to help our students prepare to take the SAT college entrance exams, DMCHS administers the PSAT every October. The date for the fall of 2023 is Tuesday October 17.
The PSAT takes about 3 hours, and we do have slots available each year for homeschool students who need a location to take the test.
Results are expected earlier this year as we will be taking it online.
PSAT scores are also used in high school to determine if a student is ready to take a Dual Credit course.
PSAT is administered to sophomores and juniors each year. Juniors are eligible for the National Merit Scholarship Program based on their PSAT scores.
