Any chance of NMSF?

<p>I am a junior in Nebraska. I got my PSAT scores back today, and I got a 220. Do I have any chance of being a National Merit Semi-Finalist?</p>

<p>Excellent score. Yes, you have a very good chance of being a NMF. I don’t think NE’s cutoff has ever been close to 221 (which the score would need to be for you to miss making NMSF in your state).</p>

<p>How does the selection index play into the process?</p>

<p>??</p>

<p>220 is your selection index. That is your PSAT score.</p>

<p>Your score is much higher than Nebraska’s past cutoff scores.</p>

<p>You should have no trouble making National Merit with a 220 in Nebraska! To track information on qualifying scores submitted by users of this site, follow the thread </p>
