<p>PSAT 183 New York</p>
<p>Another question. Does the commended status come with the 2 college essays or not? If you took the PSAT as a sophomore, will only your junior PSAT count for commended? Thanks, ritaandjulia</p>
<p>I got a 207, NV, 97th percentile. I don't know yet what my standing is though; probably commended, according to my counselor. I thought you find out the results in September. How did you know so soon?</p>
<p>I love how i got a 217 and the cutoff will probably be 218 for NY..</p>
<p>204, ny, commended</p>

<p>Only your junior year PSAT counts. I'm not sure what you mean in your first question. With commended or higher status, NM will send your information to 2 colleges of your choice. Essays are not involved. My D (currently a HS junior) was notified this past week that her score is among the 50,000 who make the first cut towards NM. We won't find out until September if she makes semifinalist status. Anyone who made a 203 or higher as a HS junior this year will be at least commended. She was given a code and a website to log into in order to put down her 2 college choices.</p>
<p>So if you received a letter, does that guarantee you as either a commended student or a semi-finalist?</p>
<p>if you recieved a letter this month...it guarantees that you are at least commended...semifinalist names are released next september...</p>
<p>my school notified me yesterday (210)...the counselor told me only 3 students at my [dumb] school received this</p>
<p>2 here, [dumber] o.0</p>
<p>I'm still on spring break so who knows!</p>
<p>I was under the impression that they'd be letting us know in September. I haven't gotten a letter yet. Anyway, I should be a semifinalist... 240/CA.</p>
<p>Commended - 205 - Got the letter. New Jersey.</p>
<p>Heh, only one in mine so I guess I beat you all.</p>

Semifinalist</p>
<p>Does this letter come through the mail or the school? I haven't gotten anything yet, but I'm pretty sure that I made it (218, Nevada). My school doesn't have much experience with this type of thing - only one NMF in the past three years. Should I just wait?</p>
<p>Im pretty sure that it comes through your school...i dont think you need to worry just yet...maybe your school is a little slow in handing them out...i know my school is slow handing them out despite having 5+ nmsf each year...</p>
<p>Ds came in the mail - addressed specifically to him. I don't think they are supposed to come from your high school!</p>
<p>hmm...maybe I am wrong...either way they should come soon...</p>
<p>My D's letter came through her school.</p>
