JeanM Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 I just tried, but it is only displaying ds's 2014 PSAT, not the 2015. I'll try later... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmos Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Oh, cool. Thanks for posting. I had totally forgotten they would be released today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livetoread Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 I wasn't sent an access code, but I created an account that was acknowledged through email. When I sign into that account and try and access scores, it tells me they have no record of him taking any tests. They give a link if that is incorrect. The link leads me to his account, where his address and school are missing. When I try and fill homeschool for the school, it won't take it. I chose another homeschool just to have something there and filled in the address. Fine. Then I refresh and go back and end up in the same hellish loop. Of course, when I call the number they give for assistance, they just say my call can't be completed now. I guess patience is the order of the day today.

Gratia271 Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 It is at a different link: https://studentscores.collegeboard.org/viewscore Thanks so much for the link. We couldn't find the scores going through the regular page. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisaKinVA Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Just log in on the college board quick start screen. The 2015 PSAT scores are posted there. It puts us into a horrible loop. It says he didn't take a test, so we go to add scores to enter additional information, and then tells us he has a second account, which we have to log into. We try recovering the username, but the only email it accepts is the one connected to the account we sign in from. I sent an email, and we have tried calling.

Cosmos Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 It is at a different link: https://studentscores.collegeboard.org/viewscore I'm so sorry some of you aren't seeing the scores yet. Just in case it helps, I'll mention that when my ds logged on to his College Board account it did not show any PSAT scores, just his SAT scores from December. But when he went to that link from bctnln1059 the PSAT came right up. So if you haven't been using that link, give it a try. It is a really informative report. As someone said you can see every question and the student's response and explanations of the answers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GinaPagnato Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Yes, we can see the scores using that link that was posted. Sorry that some of you are having such a hard time. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoJosMom Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 (edited) I'm trying to help my son create an account, but it won't let us as it won't accept homeschool as our school. I had this same problem. Try typing Your State Home School, School Code: <insert code> (You can find the code in the PSAT Supervisor's Manual. Google "PSAT 2015 homeschool codes. If you're still in Kentucky, it's on 991899-I have it on my computer now :) ) Warning: It may not seem to work at first. Try logging off and then using the link upthread. ETA: I also had tried inputting the school where DD took the test; I have no idea which actually worked, but the "State Home School" stuff above is how it is listed on the report.

BlsdMama Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 I can clearly see DS' scores for 2014. When I click to get more scores I'm led to a screen where I need to input an access code. I called the College Board. I was told by a very sweet woman there that homeschooled students will be emailed their access codes sometime between today and Saturday. Bummer. Sigh.

Julie of KY Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 I really don't want to put in a different high school. I KNOW we put the KY homeschool code on the PSAT form because the high school counselor made ME do it when we registered to take the test at the school. I felt crazy sitting in the counselor office with a bunch of high school students bubbling in a form that should be done my son. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just knew that DD needed a homeschool code when she took the test. Do you know what your DS used on the form? I tried both that and the name of the school where she took the test; I don't know which worked. We also kept losing her home address. I just kept editing and accepting changes. Then I logged out, closed the window, and tried a short time later with the link provided upthread. I'm sorry you're having a hard time. It's incredibly frustrating.

I think I have to wait for the younger, since he's not yet 13, so they won't let him into the site-- or has anyone else had a different experience?

KarenC Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 We were able to see our scores at 9:30. The commended scores in the past have been around 201-202. It looks like they may be a little lower this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm very happy with my 10th grade dd's scores, especially the reading/writing. She just came out of a year of geometry and I expect her math scores will be better next year. My hopes for her are a substantial scholarship at a private mid-level school and she's on a very good trajectory for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joker Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Can anyone give me a rundown or share a link that explains how these are supposed to compare to the old test? Dd's school has been given it since she was in 8th grade, so this was her third time in 10th. I knew her scored would go up due to having more math under her belt but it seems to have jumped a great deal and that's with no prep. Is the new test considered to be much easier?

Julie of KY Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 FYI - For anyone having the same problem as I did creating an account: I would try to put in the KY homeschool code and CB kept not recognizing it as a school. I started over more than once and eventually when I put in the same code it popped up Kentucky Home School. ... now if just says he has no scores. Hoping they show up eventually.
