| Cutoff?
Has ANYONE'S GC mentioned the cutoff. I saw above that someone said 200, but I can't be convinced with one person. At this point, I don't think anyone officially knows. I have a 199 so I am sweating balls. | |

| For those of you that got the letter - did you register for the PSAT yourself, or did the school do it for you? That may be why some get the letter at home and some get it from the GC or the school....(keeping fingers crossed that the cutoff is 200) | |

| I called NM on Friday and they said the letters were mailed to the schools. I'm assuming that's for everybody except for the home-schooled students. | |

| When you say got the letter, do you mean you are a Scholar, or a Commended student? I'm waiting on Scholar notification... | |

| no scholars are notified for several months. first, this month, the top 50,000 scholars get notified that they are High Scorers. Then in Septemberish you find out if you made it as Semifinalist (top 1% of scorers). You sumbit an application, which includes SAT scores, for a finalist application. Once selected as a finalist, you are in the running to be a National Merit Scholar. So you have a long way to go ceebee63.
Also, some schools dont participate in NM, so those schools i believe would not give you money? | |
