NM Finalist

<p>Just got the notification from my counselor today, i was actually pretty worried, anyone else hear?</p>

<p>I've been waiting to find out if I'm a finalist. I thought you got the notification in the mail.</p>

<p>Yeah, I found out a couple days ago. Anyone know when we have to submit our first choice college by?</p>

<p>It depends on where you are going, some schools make you decide before the date national merit set. I think the date national merit set is in April, but I'm not sure.</p>

<p>yeah i got the finalist letter today...it's not really that exciting considering 15000/16000 advance</p>

<p>My daughter got her notice today.</p>

<p>I got mine today! It was a bit exciting even though I knew I would get it.</p>

<p>i got my letter today. yay good to know i didn't mess up the paper work.</p>

<p>I was excited because now we can finally call ourselves Finalists rather than Semifinalists! I also for some reason didn't know that everyone got a thin envelope... so when I saw "Dear Finalist," I breathed a sigh of relief.</p>

<p>Haha, our school passed out notifications on Monday and awarded the certificates on Thursday, before the letter came for me today, so it was very anticlimatic. Does anyone else find the certificates themselves very plain? There's not even a seal or watermark.</p>

<p>haha, nope, nuthin special about them, the 1,000 semi's could easily whip them up at home</p>

<p>just got finalist letter today. Finally, i've broken the curse of semifinalist status.</p>

<p>Someone from my school didn't make to finalist. He got 2200+ on the sat but his class rank is in the bottom half.</p>
