<p>I was wondering - just how much does being commended on the PSAT count for? Is it even worth putting on the application (if there is a space for it)?</p>
<p>Yes! why not toot your own horn. Draw attention to your strengths.</p>
<p>Definitely put it on there. Commended may not be as great as semifinalist, but it's still pretty good and it's better than not putting it.</p>
<p>how do you get commeneded. whats the cut off for CA</p>
<p>Isn't it around 203 for CA?</p>
<p>And definitely put that on your application. It certainly will not hurt.</p>
<p>There's a national cutoff for commended - it was 203 last year.</p>
<p>I put that I was commended... made me feel special</p>
