<p>Hi~ im a Texas junior, got a 237</p>
<p>CR 80
Math 77
Writing 80</p>
<p>I’m pretty i sure made semifinalist, but how are the 8500 finalists decided?</p>
<p>@Michelle</p>
<p>There are 15000 Finalists, not 8500, which for those of us who are Semifinalists is a good thing. If you make Semifinalist and send in all the appropriate materials, and you have a reasonably good GPA and are not a felon, you should move on to finalist.</p>
<p>I did mine as an application for a gifted program, 212!!! im really happy because i was 12 turning thirteen when i did it. I didn’t get to to study because my guidance counsellor told me that you shouldn’t study for the psat and that for the gifted program they prepared unprepared test scores</p>
<p>I’m pretty upset with myself, because my math dropped about 10 points compared to what it was from last year (and I’ve always considered it to be my strong-suit too)! My score did go up because of my CR though, heh.</p>

<p>That 210 is making me a little nervous, because South Carolina’s cutoff seems to have been jumping back and forth over that number for the last few years (going anywhere from a 208 to 212). I dooo know that I definitely got commended though, and the National Hispanic Recognition Program as well.</p>
