<p>Yeah, I’m freaking out about the PSAT. I’ve studied, but I don’t know if it’s enough to make the cut off for National Merit Semi-Finalist.</p>
<p>I’m sure you will do fine:) Have you done any practice tests yet? They should give you an accurate idea of how you will do.</p>
<p>I’m completely freaking out as well! I’ve taken just one full practice test, and did okay but not as well as I hoped too. Originally I REALLY wanted National Merit, but I’m pretty sure that’s not going to happen. Especially because I go to school in Massachusetts, which has a really high cut off usually. </p>
<p>On that note, can anyone confirm that the National Merit cut-offs are for the state in which you attend school not which you reside? (boarding school?) </p>
<p>Good luck to everyone, keep posting with updates! :)</p>
<p>^Massachusetts has the highest,(223) sorry:(
California- 218</p>
<p>PA-213 or it might have been 209 last year-sigh i need to study</p>
<p>Ugg…me too:/ Did the link help you at all though?:></p>
<p>We had “college day” today and it was pitiful. We had a lot of colleges but most of them sucked and were giving away free applications to try to meet enrollment requirements. We also had two unaccredited colleges and 3 community colleges–which made up a total of like 45% of the colleges there. We had 2 colleges in the 20’s (ranking-wise), and one in the 80’s. Everything else was like 4th tier…the Top 8 school like 1 hour away didn’t even show up.</p>
<p>Aww, sorry:( I’m assuming that you want to go to an Ivy league school?</p>
<p>It’s because I go to a really small school and we just kind of attended an inner-city school’s college day. I don’t want to go to an Ivy. I think I’ve posted this but my list is:</p>
<p>UChicago, UNC, NCSU, PSU</p>
<p>Sorry, I honestly forgot haha. O ok, that makes sense. Is your school having any other college fairs?</p>
