2005 PSAT - State, Scores (Selection Index), Percentile

<p>It’s interesting. The scores collegeboard gives in the thread above are for a “sample” of test takers - presumably geographically representative. On that scale, a 204 is 97 percent - not 98 as Lollipop listed above… so should we assume that Lillipop’s percentiles are for Oregon students only, and that the percentiles sent to students were based on their scores compared to only their state scores? Is the Oregon NM cutoff usually lower than “average”?</p>
