Anyone know what SAT score is needed to be a confirming score for NMF? Pretty sure mine will be NMSF based on yesterday's score.

So if a student qualified on this test, there is nothing for them to apply for yet, correct? The only info i see in the portal says they will be informed next Fall if they meet the requirements for the next level.

I just read when I searched that the student needs to get an SAT score that meets the commended cut-off using the same formula (verbal x 2 plus math divided by 10).

The PSAT is before 12th and stops at 1520. You mean SAT, right?

Compass Prep updated the cutoffs. The results show a strong upward trend in cutoffs for the class of 2026.

I notice a smaller number of PSAT juniors, Class of 2026 (1,445,000) compared to previous years. Is it "a Demographic cliff "?

The projections are that beginning with the class of 2026, the number of graduating seniors begins to decline.

Is it possible the late November test-takers weren’t yet included? DC’s school took the PSAT on 10/30, and scores were just released to their high school yesterday.

1330 in 10th grade.
If he preps for the SAT this summer, that should also help with the PSAT next fall, right?

1430 in 10th

What do you guess 11th and 12th grade scores would be with some prepping?
