For those of you worried about stats, this scholarship is much more about your interview and critical thinking skills than test scores. A girl from my school who received the award last year had roughly a 2140 on the SAT but had fabulous public speaking skills. She repeatedly tells me to just be myself because that is what they are really looking for. In short, they aren’t just looking for some perfect-scoring robot. I received my letter for a region in NOVA (that has a lot of competition for the scholarship) a couple days ago about my interview in mid-January.
