[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Note: 1% of PSAT takers nationwide become NMSS. At Wilson, roughly .2% of the juniors cleared the bar this year. [/quote] NMSF is aimed at the top .5% per state.[/quote] I thought DC is automatically assigned the cut off of the highest state (usually NJ) without regard to the number of DC students. 11th graders in DC schools last year: DCPS:2717 PCS: 1266 Private:1437 (est. from 21 private schools with high school grades in DC) So roughly 5420 eleventh graders in DC schools last year (no data on how many took the test though). So the top .5% would have allowed DC 271 NMSF, but since we are locked with the score of the top state, we only got 39 which is only the top .007%. [/quote]
