<p>S has not received notification, but is without a doubt a semi-finalist. Does anyone have the writing prompts that he needs? Please post or send in PM.</p>
<p>Thank you.</p>
<p>whatever it is this year, your son need not worry. As long as he writes something pleasant and grammatically correct, then that’s fine. Making NMF is not contingent on some fab essay.</p>
<p>Only rude essays hurt</p>
<p>“To help the reviewers get to know you, describe an experience you have had, a person who has influenced you, or an obstacle you have overcome. Explain why this is meaningful to you.” Instructions state to use 10 pt. font size. The available space is approximately 1/2 a page.</p>
<p>Thank you TreeRiver. 1/2 page doesn’t sound too tricky :-).</p>
