PSAT 2011 Saturday General Discussion

<p>@gman45</p>

<p>nd = 180 was the first question of section 2. it was something like:

  1. If n/18 = 10/d, what is nd?</p>

<p>Is NMS really a big deal though? Would you even bother writing it on your applications (assuming that your SAT score will testify to your testing ability)…?</p>

<p>Seeing all the overachieving CCers here makes me feel pretty hopeless about my chances at NMS (in California). Too bad we don’t all live in Wyoming or something T.T</p>

<p>yeah…nms really isn’t much. :stuck_out_tongue:
the money seems nice though, even though we don’t get it for a really long time. xD</p>

<p>thats true, a lot of people getting it so not too prestigious. but its not gonna hurt you, so might as well try and get it</p>

<p>Do you think -4 on math, -0 on cr, and -0 or 1 on writing would still be eligible for NMS?</p>

<p>Sorry, i mean, -4 on math, -2 on cr (1 omitted), and -0 or 1 in writing</p>

<p>hmm… that’s about a 670 math, 780 cr, and 800 writing. so… 225. should be.</p>

<p>^depends on your state. Where do you live? </p>

<p>Hopefully not in DC or MA or somewhere like that :P</p>

<p>-2M, -4CR, -3W … prob not gonna make it?</p>

<p>CR: -4, omit 1, Math: -1, Writing: -1
Score?</p>

<p>Wait, what do you guys mean by -4? Are you including the guessing penatly?
I have a -4 with the guessing penalty included.</p>

<p>@indianajones, you’ll prob make it</p>

<p>@daniel you might depending on ur state. I’m in california, so I need a pretty high score to make it…</p>

<p>does ot really go by the state your in?</p>

<p>Well ummmm I’m definetly a noob here.</p>

<p>Yes. NJ, MA, and DC are typically the hardest states, CA and NY close behind.</p>

<p>And yes I know DC is not a state lol</p>

<p>@indiana, im NY, so its gonna be close. what do you think?</p>

<p>DC is the hardest state? That’s a bit odd considering DC is notorious for having the failingest school system ever.</p>

<p>I’m CA I have no chance at NMS. I’m seriously freaking out I feel really dumb.</p>

<p>i hate living in such a competitive state -_-</p>
