When you take tests more than once, your scores may differ slightly upon each testing
occasion. This expected variation is considered your score range and reflects the range
your scores will likely fall in upon retesting. For the PSAT/NMSQT these ranges are
approximately:
Total: Your score 40 points.
Section: Your score 30 points.
Test Scores and Cross-Test Scores: Your score 3 points.
Subscores: Your score 2 points.
