<p>I scored higher on my PSAT than my SAT...should i include my PSAT score in the description of awards/additional info section? is there any reason why it wouldn't be a good idea for me to include it? Do semifinalists usually include their scores in their college apps (especially if they did better on the psat than on sats)? </p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>they could care less unless you are a commedend student/semifinalist/finalist/winner</p>
<p>If you are NMSF from a rural state like me, I would mention it. My state has such a low cutoff and I had a 229 that I wanted to let them see it. I don't think it will hurt, but might not help.</p>
<p>What Big East said is blunt but true - colleges are not interested in seeing your PSAT score. It's only relevant if you are named a commended scholar or above.</p>
<p>negative. Yes, you can mention Commended or Semi/Finalist, but not the psat score, bcos the SAT is what matters.</p>
<p>My understanding is that the only time PSAT/NMSQT scores are sent to directly to schools are for the 50,000 or so national merit commended/semi-finalists that choose to have their names, and scores, sent to two schools. That's it. Any other mention of PSAT score would be ignored because it cannot be substantiated. I would be careful about pointing out that I did worse on the more rigorous and comprehensive SAT than the less rigorous PSAT.</p>
<p>Unless you're a National Semi-Finalist, Commended, or a National Merti Scholar, don't bother. They could care less about your PSAT scores otherwise.</p>
