Anyone care to speculate on increase in qualifying scores?

<p>I didn’t want to clog up the score thread so I figured I’d post here. Our HS just announced our NMSF’s in today’s announcements: only 2 this year including a girl who scored a perfect ACT & SAT last year so no surprise. Least we’ve had since 2007.</p>

<p>In addition, on another thread a parent noted that she “got an email from the school stating that the state of Texas is going to pay for all juniors to take the PSAT this year.” With the jump in scores this year, and what seems like an incentive for a lot more juniors in TX to take the PSAT next month, I wonder what that will do to the cutoff in TX next year.</p>

<p>Do any other states pay for all juniors to take the PSAT? We’re in an ACT state, so a lot of kids don’t take it and we pay a whopping $15.</p>
