<p>Have the NM Letters of Commendation gone out yet? If so what is the selection ndex cutoff? </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>It’s 201. If you are going to be commended you should have received a letter last spring that you were among the top 50,000. Don’t know if they’ve gone out, my son hasn’t received his yet.</p>

<p>Thanks. I received the letter last spring but hadn’t heard anything yet. How did yu confirm this? I looked on NM web and didn’t see anything.</p>

<p>Again thanks-</p>

46

<p>ONE out of 800ish. 37 in the county LOL</p>

47

<p>6 out of 555 for my school. Last year was 11 and the other year was 13ish :(</p>

48

<p>9 semifinalists out of a class of 1024. Huge public school, as you can tell, that isn’t that competitive (for my class at least).</p>

49

<p>17 out of a class of 420 (about a quarter of the class is magnet students). This isn’t the norm–usually, there are around seven or eight. Last year we only got three.</p>
