<p>how often does the NMS semifinalist cutoff score go up by more than 3 points from one year to the next in a certain state .</p>
<p>Rarely, but, if you look at past cutoff score postings in this forum, it has happened in the past. Probably on the order of a 1-2% chance. It is more likely to happen in states with fewer testers, where random fluctuations tend to be larger.</p>
<p>If you look here, <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/1062331742-post2.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/1062331742-post2.html</a>, for example, you’ll see that from 2007 to 2008 ID’s cutoff went up 4 points and NH’s cut-off went down 4 points. From 2008 to 2009, RI’s cutoff went up 4 points.</p>
<p>i live in GA. what are the chances. it’s been at 214-215 the past few years</p>
<p>It seems you are fishing for a “no chance” response. No one here can say that honestly and with full knowledge. Life is full of small uncertainties.</p>
