@IvyCupcake78 OP is asking about selection index for NMS, not total score. The selection index (according to the College Board) is still going to be 1/3 Reading, 1/3, Writing, and 1/3 Math. So what you said about math being 50% for the total score is TRUE, its not the case for NMS qualification (Math is only 33.3%).

@RiceEater108 No one will know the cutoffs until a year from now. They have totally changed the ranges, so you can estimate based on % on previous tests, but like @IvyCupcake78 said, the scale is different, the test is different, so very hard to compare from other years.
