<p>Gahh!!! Probably not even commended! I'm so angry :( When I saw this score I just wanted to punch a wall. What should I be thinking? I was in the 96th percentile...Is this where the cutoff is for commended national merit? I live in ohio :(</p>
<p>I don’t think commended is ever under 200. Sorry.
You should be thinking about prepping hard for the SAT/ACT if you’re looking for scholarships.</p>
<p>I think you MIGHT get commended w/that in Ohio.</p>
<p>The cutoff score for “Commended” scholars is the same nationwide–unlike the cutoff for semi-finalist, which changes from state to state.</p>
<p>The “commended” cutoff score can vary a bit each year, though I believe it is the 97th percentile.</p>
