National Merit Cutoff Predictions Class of 2017

It looks fine to me… My bookmark is still working the same, its just they’ve moved this to the NMS folder.

Weird. I had to re-bookmark it. Oh well, I am just going to go with it. Good luck everyone!

I just have it open in its own tab and it seems to work.

The KY post is interesting. I wonder if Mary is in a network of home school families and that is based on who got letters and who didn’t. Hopefully Mary returns to provide more info as if that turns out to be the cut offs could be leaning toward the higher side of the predictions.

Mail came, no letter.

Bulk mail, which I think they use, can be quite slow, especially when it’s important.

@skieurope Something happened to the “***Class of 2016 NMSF/NMF Qualifying Scores” thread when it was unpinned. All the posts after March 2015 seem to have been lost. I was going to link to some humorous discussions they had about this time last year about the folks at NM corp office reading their thread and figuring out slower and slower ways to reply. I forget the details. Something about Jimmie in the mailroom or something. Maybe something about seagull-based delivery?

What happened? The old pinned threads seem to have disappeared or been truncated drastically. They were a valuable resource for future years in learning how the NMSF process works.

Hey crazy dad - I think you need to go a little easier on the crazy… :slight_smile: No need to post to ask people to post. They will post when they get info, without your provocation…

@Ynotgo Thanks for bringing to my attention. Sorry about that. This has been fixed.

There was a theory that Jimmie in the mail room became Dookster.

I got my letter today! I’m a homeschool student in Illinois, with an SI of 222. So happy the wait is finally over!

sorry will try to be less crazy

No worries! :slight_smile: We’ve all been there…

Congrats @cbphysics99!!! We have been waiting months for a post like yours.

@cbphysics99 congratulations!! That’s a wonderful feeling :slight_smile:

Interesting to note that our first letter is from Illinois! I don’t believe that’s how it was last year, but it makes sense if the letters are going out from Evanston.

Depends on what part of IL. Not going to ask because poster may not want to identify self. but S. IL is a long way from Evanston and actually borders western KY.

Update: poster is 15 miles from Evanston. Wow! Snail mail raised to a whole new level.

@cbphysics99 thanks for sharing - huge congratulations!! Now we know that the mailing (or at least part of it) is actually out and deliveries are starting

@cbphysics99 …Congratulations!!!

That’s great @cbphysics99 – Congrats!
