Last time, I used SAT data (2014 and 2015) to interpret my estimate.
This time, I use PSAT data (2012,2013 and 2014) to estimate cutoff for TX then you can use same way to predict cutoff for your state
Past PSAT cutoff for each state

2015:https://collegereadiness.collegeboard.org/pdf/2015-psat-nmsqt-understanding-scores.pdf
from page 11, we can see for TX cutoff will be at top 3rd of 99%tile next to lowest 99+%tile of 2015 PSAT
My conclusion - in order to qualify for NMF in Texas- based “top third group in 99%tile, next to the lowest group in 99+%tile”. One should have SI at 210 up to 213
Again, Please, do not take my opinions or conclusions seriously since I am junior in HS and if you follow my posts you would see things like “my methods or my ways of estimate have many flaws” or " an estimate is an estimate. My Guess is as good as or as bad as anybody’s". I am not a CB official
