<p>mcap. While you are dissappointed with your PSAT scores, congrats nonetheless.</p>

<p>Like you said National Merit may be out for you, based on this link below for LA cutoff on Natl Merit.<br>

<p>However, since there appears to be no published data on Natl Achievement, your best best is to speak with your GC to get some historicals on the score range on students who were selected as NASF in the past. I however, believe that the 191 should definitely not exclude you as a semi finalist. I urge you to review some of the threads here on CC that can also provide some insights.</p>

<p>Good luck and keep us posted!</p>
