College Readiness Benchmarks
College Readiness is assessed within Virginia Beach City Public Schools through the use of four nationally
recognized standardized tests. In Grade 8, all students are administered the PSAT 8/9. In Grade 10, all
students are administered the PSAT/NMSQT. Additionally, students have the opportunity to take either the
