2009 PSAT scores (Class of 2011)

If you have already received this years test scores, could you identify the STATE you live in and your scores?

My son #2 just got his psat score (234). He goes to a boarding school and just called us. We are obviously pleased.

Good luck to you all 2011ers!

What do you predict the California cut off will be? I heard somewhere on this forum that the cutoff would be lower (compared with last year's 218), but I heard from someone on yahoo answers that it would be higher (220).

In general, where do you predict cut off scores will go?

I got a 213 and I'm in Michigan. I'm right around where the cut-off was last year, so I'm crossing my fingers that I get named a Merit scholar. Not for the scholarships, more because I need some awards to flesh out my apps, lol.

230 in NY.
80CR, 80M, 70W.

Anyone else get screwed by the writing curve? That 70 translates to 2 questions wrong.
2 wrong on the entire PSAT = 230? ********.

My DD got a 213 in Oregon. That was the same score as the cut-off for the past 3 years. Fingers crossed.

Benno- writing hit me hard, too. Does anyone know why each writing question was worth 5 points? Doesn't that mean if I'd gotten them all wrong I'd have gotten a negative number? I thought the lowest you could receive was a 20.

Anyways, I got 224 in PA, so hopefully that meets National Merit. 74 CR, 80 M, 70 W...even though I missed more Reading questions than Writing.

I got a 214 in Pennsylvania.

Do you think I made Semi-Finalist? It's really border-line I think.

I also got screwed over by writing curve.

74 CR (3 wrong), 75 M (2 wrong), 65 W (4 Wrong)

222. I hope that would be a good indicator of my actual SAT score. Outside the United States. 70 writing as well, but I got 3 wrong instead.
