<p>Thanks Erin’s Dad. Though, I should not count my chickens before they are hatched. S scored a 219 (99 percentile rank). This score, would have been, historically, a safe bet for semifinalists in our state of Texas, except the cut off jumped four points last year, from 215 to 219. So, hypothetically, it could jump again and take him out of the running. To my son’s credit, it seems like the curve is about two points harsher this year, so unless things are radically changing in Texas, the cut off should not rise and may even fall back a couple of points.</p>
