Look through this thread. There are lots of posters from Texas. The semifinalist cutoff seems to be about 200 this year for Texas, though it was not nailed down exactly when posts stopped. ‘Outstanding participant’ seems to be similar to ‘commended’ for national merit, so much lower.

I think the thing to do is call NMSC and ask for the national achievement office and ask them about it to get correct info.
