<p>^^^ ROCKFISHDG: Personally, I wouldn’t bother sending the new SAT score to NMSC. The previously sent score (2100) is more than adequate to confirm the PSAT score. </p>
<p>I have never seen anything in writing from NMSC indicating that their $2500 scholarships gravitate to students with the highest SAT scores. Some on CC may think so, but it’s purely speculation on their part. I recall last year that there was a forum posting (by M2CK, I think) asking for NMSC $2500 scholarship winners to post their stats in an attempt to “break the code” or determine the criteria for awarding the scholarship. Seems to me that there was no conclusive evidence to support any theory out there.</p>
<p>The beauty of the increase in SAT scores from 2100 to 2220 is that it will put your daughter in a better position for acceptance at a top school and open her up to the possibility of many other scholarships outside of NMSC, so you should be happy about that.</p>
