Any semifinal notifications at 220 in NY?
What is the cutoff for NM commended this year? And is anyone making a table of these cutoffs likenin past years?
@jym626 You are usually in the mix so that is a surprising question from you. There is a thread dedicated exclusively to sharing 2018 qualifying scores as they are learned. NM commended came is at 211, I believe.
Thanks for @jswani confirming 224 in IL
@dowzerw - I have been sidelined with dealing with a broken ankle. Not spending a lot of time unfortunately perusing this information which is why I asked. Thanks for the info everyone
I’m surprised that there are no NJ parents asking for confirmation! NJ is usually the highest state cutoff and very competive. It would be great to have the final top cutoff.
@jym626, have you checked the National Merit subforum? I vaguely remember seeing National Hispanic Scholar thread titles there but I could be mistaken.
Will double check. If anyone has a link, it’s greatly appreciated.
@suzyQ7 - I am in NJ but I already know 221 didn’t make it. So hoping to see if anyone sitting at 222 confirms making it. Want to see if NJ is 222 or 223.
so from the other thread, looks like 222 did not make it for international student. Does that mean NJ is also 223? As I understand, international should be same as the highest US state cutoff?
No, I don’t think we can say for sure that NJ is 223, unless someone with a 222 confirms that they didn’t make it. NJ is usually the highest cutoff but another state might be higher this year.
ok makes sense. I thought its always NJ and\or MA that is the highest. MA is at 222.
It seems very likely that NJ is 223 but until that final piece drops into place with someone confirming that 222 didn’t make it, we can’t be fully certain.
Seems like most states went up one point. Did any go up more than two among the higher scoring states? Looks as though Art was right on the money, which doesn’t surprise many of us. ^:)^
Based on information provided by Jswani (THANK YOU), I can confirm 217 meets the cutoff for Iowa and my daughter is ecstatic!!! The Principal is traveling they do not release information until tomorrow to the Semi-Finalists.
Congratulations, @DJL !
I am a NJ student who got a 222 and did not make the cut according to the Book. Looks like 223 is the cutoff.
@traveler98 @Pri930 Just checked for a 222 in NJ - they didn’t make it. New Jersey is now a confirmed 223.
Can anyone please confirm if 220 did not make it at IL? In Art’s blog, it said the cutoff was 221 but I did not see anyone specifically confirm 220 did not make it. Thanks for everyone, especially “jswani”.
