<p>If I take the PSAT in october this year through my School. When will I have to take the SAT to validate my PSAT score for the NMSQT award?</p>
<p>Also I've been taking PSAT practice tests and have scored 210-230, are my chances of it high?</p>

<p>Any SAT that you take (even if it’s before you take the PSAT) will work as the “validation” score.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>A 230 will get you NMSF in any state. A 210 will get you NMSF in a handful of states. For an idea of the cutoffs by state, follow this thread: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/national-merit-scholarships/1199607-national-merit-semifinalist-qualify-scores-class-2012-a.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/national-merit-scholarships/1199607-national-merit-semifinalist-qualify-scores-class-2012-a.html</a></p>
<p>The last time and ONLY time I’ve ever taken the SAT was in 7nth Grade. I got like 1400 (horrible) scores. I don’t think a 1400 from 7nth grade will validate my PSAT score which I will hope to get in the NMSQT award. When will I have to take the SAT to validate it? Will the December 3rd, 2011 SAT test be able to validate my October 12, 2011 PSAT score?</p>
<p>Or when will be the latest time I will have to take the SAT to validate my PSAT score. Because I have only taken the SAT once, and it is not going to be accurate since its from 7nth grade.</p>
<p>The SAT test dates that count for the Class of 2013 are from October 2011 to sometime in 2013, so the December 3, 2011 SAT test date will validate your October 12, 2011 PSAT score.</p>

</p>
<p>Yes. </p>
<p>I mean, your 7th grade 1400 wouldn’t validate your PSAT score anyway.</p>
<p>the dates for sat scores to validate psat scores are on the National merit scholarship website. <a href=“http://www.nationalmerit.org/forms.php[/url]”>http://www.nationalmerit.org/forms.php</a></p>
