<p>Scores are out. A 215 was good enough to be a semi-finalist in Wisconsin!!</p>
<p>congrats Wiscfan! Isn’t there anybody else out there that has any info? There must be somebody else who has heard! Waiting with a bubble score on the East Coast!</p>
<p>Any predictions or scores for Oregon yet?</p>
<p>@Wiscfan: congratulations! Do you know anyone closer last year’s WI cutoff (209) who made it or didnt make it?</p>
<p>Yay, people are getting results! Congrats wiscfan!</p>
<p>Do not know any other scores in WI, but bet the cut off will be close to 210 or so. Just happy to be a semi-finalists and am surprised that no one else has heard. My school got the results in the mail today, so I’m guessing others must have gotten their lists as well.</p>
<p>And so it begins…</p>
<p>Thanks, wiscfan (and so am I–a Wisconsin fan, that is)</p>

<p>10(?) Boarding school regions
No scores reported yet.
These usually are set to be equal to the highest cut-off score among the individual states in the region.</p>
<p>Internationals=?
This usually is set to be equal to the highest cut-off score among all the individual states.</p>
<p>Commended (national cutoff) = 200
Any person with a score equal to or higher than this cutoff who is not a NMSF receives commended status. This group represents the highest 50,000 scorers.</p>
<p>What school district in WI released results? Just wondering if Madison will tell kids automatically, or do we need to phone counselor. How did you find out?</p>
<p>If the scores decrease this year as some have predicted then my son may make the cutoff. Fingers crossed. </p>
<p>Now this is most certainly a coincidence… However, my son, who was not home to take the call, just got a call from University of Tulsa. They told my husband that my son was “a very desirable student” and they wanted to introduce their school to him. </p>
<p>I’m trying not to read anything into this but haven’t I read that there have been times when a student got “notice” because they heard from a university? </p>
<p>I am sooo ready to get the word on Tennessee cutoffs!</p>
<p>Good luck to all of you!</p>
<p>buddyolboy: I discussed Oregon’s prediction yesterday. No word on scores yet.</p>
<p>Congrats in Wisconsin! How exciting and what a relief at the same time! :)</p>
<p>Chilling with a 225 in CA. How apprehensive should I be?</p>
<p>225 is golden for the Golden State (any state really). On a national level the cutoff for 99+% (essentially the top 7500 testtakers) was 222. You are three points above that!</p>
<p>^ Slightly more apprehensive than me, with a 225 in TX. So, not apprehensive.</p>
<p>Waiting anxiously here in VA with a 224.</p>
<p>So the national cutoff was INCLUSIVE of 222???</p>
<p>Yes, the cutoff for the 99+ percentile range on the national level was inclusive of 222. See page 3 of this report. <a href=“http://professionals.collegeboard.com/profdownload/understanding-psat-nmsqt-scores.pdf[/url]”>http://professionals.collegeboard.com/profdownload/understanding-psat-nmsqt-scores.pdf</a></p>
<p>The 99+ percentile range is the top one half of one percent of testtakers, or somewhere between 6000 and 7500 people. There are 16,000 who make NMSF.</p>
<p>On rare occasions one or two of the highest performing states have had NMSF cutoffs that are the same as the national 99+ cutoff, but not for the past few years.</p>
<p>Congratulations, Wiscfan!!</p>
<p>Correction. 2 years ago the 99+ cutoff was 222 and there were 2 states (MA and DC) with NMSF cutoffs of 223.</p>
<p>So, with the exception of PERHAPS the highest performing states, what you are saying is that anyone with a 222 or higher is NMSF. Correct?</p>
