<p>When/how do you know if you get commended? I'm almost positive that I should get commended since my score was 1 point below the cutoff (yep) but I'm slightly worried since it's almost the end of September. Does anyone know?</p>
<p>This year’s Commended cutoff is 201. If u are below that, u didn’t make it.</p>
<p>Oh I meant 1 point below the state cutoff for semifinalists. When do you get notified though?</p>
<p>@mineO3O…NMSC mailed out letters on Sep 16th to the principals of schools with Commended students. Your school should receive the letter this week sometime, but every school is different on how quickly they’ll notify you. Congratulations on being named Commended!!</p>
