This is not a test for knowledge; it is a test to make sure that students that are testing are able to access Bluebook and test it to make sure it works. We also finish registering students and show them how to access practice tests with their Chromebooks and go over how the test is administered. All students taking the PSAT/NMSQT must do a Student Readiness Test.
