<p>230 in NJ and still haven’t gotten a letter… I’m really hoping my guidance counselor accidentally left it on her desk or something.</p>
<p>mm my high school has had over 100 commended/semifinalists each year for the past few years, and the school hasnt gotten any letters yet for this year.
im california, btw, and got a 235 and no letter yet!</p>
<p>Just got letter Friday in MD.</p>
<p>Quick question- does a score of 200 automatically give you a commended status, no matter what state you are in?</p>
<p>im in MA and got a 201, and didn’t receive a letter.</p>
<p>should i be worried?</p>
<p>224 in PA, got my letter friday.</p>
<p>jenx, word is that the cutoff is 201 this year, so you should be fine. And, yes, commended is a national cutoff.</p>
<p>But I’d call someone about that letter anyway.</p>
<p>thanks, youdontsay. im thinking/hoping it might be a guidance-office issue, since they didn’t give us our psat scores till 2 and a half months after they received them.</p>
<p>wait, so if the commended score raised, does that mean there’s a good chance it will raise in each state? Was this PSAT easier than last years?</p>
<p>D got 227 WA…got her letter 2 weeks ago</p>
<p>undah, I’d say it won’t raise in every state but must have in some.</p>
<p>219 in FL, still nothing =[ Should I be worried?</p>
<p>221 in NY, already got the letter… are the cutoffs on the first page for last year’s semi-finalists?</p>
<p>Yes, those scores are for the class graduating in 2009.</p>
<p>Is it possible for sophomores to receive letters of commendation?</p>
<p>Got a 202 as a sophomore in CA.</p>
<p>No, those letters are for qualified juniors only.</p>
<p>234 letter TN</p>
<p>231 in NH and no letter…I don’t pretend to understand the inner workings of my high school. >.<</p>
<p>221 in IN and no letter. NMSC said to ask the principal because there is time sensitive material in the packet. I assume that’s the College Reporting Service…which many have touted as irrelevant. Still…frustrating to have a school that doesn’t think it’s very important since the reporting service (per NMSC) msut be done by May 26th. Would be nice, in the middle of finals and A/Ps and contests, etc…to have some time to actually CONSIDER what colleges to which to report. But…this school is the same way with the PSAT. Didn’t notify kids of their scores until AFTER it was already available at collegeboard.com online to everyone with or without a password. Wonder what is the benefit in this? Are they just lazy, or is there really a reasoning process behind making kids wait and stress them further?</p>
<p>227 and got letter in VA</p>
<p>so these people receiving letters: Are you seniors or juniors this year?
I got 217 in California. I am a junior.</p>
