PSAT question about NMSF cutoffs

<p>I am in Alabama and got 208 on my PSAT...the cutoff last year was 209...what do you guys think might be my chances of getting semifinalist...does anyone know of any indicators that say cutoffs may go up or down??</p>

<p>Similar question, I'm in Ohio and I scored a 210, it was 214 last year but 2010 is a bit of a weak year overall. Any ideas?</p>

<p>I don't think its likely to drop 4 points but I would like to know if a one point drop sounds likely</p>

<p>I would like to know if a four point drop sounds likely (plausible, really)</p>

<p>A four point drop is a really big decrease</p>

<p>There are ways to find out the cutoff scores from previous years. Search in old threads. If it's happened before, there is no reason it couldn't happen again. If it's never happened, it would be unlikely. (that's for 4 points).</p>

<p>lol i have looked at past scores and of course it fluctuates but for the past 2 years it was 209 but in the past it has been 208-210</p>
