<p>Someone dabble with me. I can't wait till December comes -- I'm anxious on whether I actually met my goal (>NMSF cutoff), anxious because I made high claims, yet did very little to actually show for it (took it as a sophomore last year, took a practice the day before).</p>
<p>I am also quite ancy to see my scores... I'm hoping for: </p>
<p>(Best Case Scenario) 78 CR/69 M/77 W= 224
(Worst Case Scenario) 70 CR/64 M/69 W= 203</p>
<p>I only had a 2020 on the SAT, so I hope to redeem myself in some sense through the PSAT and National Merit. I'm basically at the mercy of the curves though :/. I found the critical reading section incredibly simple compared to the november SAT I had...hoping for 2 wrong. I'm rather certain I scored in that region. (thanks to the efforts of Vinny380 to post the questions in a chat, and for Jasonng for sending me it)</p>
<p>Only ~3 more weeks until the majority of us are receiving some sort of score report, and ~1-2 weeks before this year's edition of the PSAT extra is posted on cb, along with curves, percentiles, etc.</p>
<p>Yeah I really want NMSF, UF (where i plan to go) gives a ton of money for it. </p>
<p>(Best case scenario) = 78 CR, 80M, 80W = 238
(worst case scenario) = 68CR, 70M, 70W = 208. Floridas cutoff is around 215. :-/</p>
<p>Edit: I bet i won't get them back untill after winter break though. We get out for winter break on like December 15 or something.</p>
<p>I know how you guys feel - last year I was going through the exact same thing, practically obsessing over what score I was going to get. Looking back now, I was much more nervous about hearing about my PSAT score in December than I am now about finding out whether or not I get into my top choice school. </p>
<p>Eventually when my score came I was really excited for a while, and I pretty much knew I was going to be a semifinalist, but when the time came and the announcement was actually made it just seemed like it wasn't that big of a deal anymore. </p>
<p>Don't let the worrying get to you. Like me, you'll realize that your score on a 2 hour test, whether youre a semifinalist or not, doesn't tell you anything about yourself other than how well you can fill in a scantron.</p>
<p>yes, exrunner, you and I happen to be in the same boat...I hope Florida's cutoff doesn't rise anymore...and I also plan to attend UF. </p>
<p>oh, the agony.</p>
<p>Oh, I can't wait, either! I'm so nervous and excited. I was hitting about 226-230 on practice tests, and MD's NMSF cutoff is 222. Arg! I've got to make it!</p>
<p>Just wait, though. I'll get a 221 or something silly like that.</p>
<p>OMG I need my 222! I'm hoping 77 M / 78 W / 67 CR at the very least.</p>
<p>It would be nice to get a perfect 240 but I'll settle for a 223... Please be a perfect score. </p>
<p>Which validates that I really can't wait until the scores come in. I think I'm more anxious about this score than I ever was for AP and I paid a whole lot more for those tests.</p>
<p>Wildcat - you are prob right .. but for some reason... i am anxious about my scores!!</p>
<p>I dont think i got semi-finalist ... and oh god - maybe not commended!!! NOOOOOO
Based on the number I i got wrong...:
Cr-8 (ouch) =((((((
Wr- 3 =/
M-3 + 1 grid =(</p>
<p>Can someone give me an estimate of wht you think i will get in Cr,M, and WR ..? Obviously, we do not know the curves... but give u best guess.... i cant believe i am still worrying about this thing .... thanks</p>
<p>wait do the scores come out on the 1st of december?</p>
<p>I have a bad feeling about my scores: the more I looked at the discussion threads, the more my hopes started to dwindle...</p>
<p>Vinny380:
Last year, missed 8 is 63 on CR
Writing is probably a 77
Math is like a 67</p>
<p>ahh im so nervous about my scores lol...hoping for 222 (cutoff in CT) but i think i messed up on one of the CR passages and might have made some careless errors in math.
Good luck to all though! : )</p>
<p>anyone know the date they come out? or is it just "sometime in december?" </p>
<p>thanks</p>
<p>Around the middle of December. No specific date. They mail scores to your school and your house.</p>
<p>wow 3 + 1 grid wrong and a 670 ... i hate math</p>
<p>I am scared about my scores. Hopefully i can pull off commended. You other forum users seem scary good at PSAT since your expecting finalist.</p>
<p>not me =/.......</p>
<p>I am soooooooooooooooooooo nervous, lol</p>
<p>I'm mad stoked.</p>
