[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many people care about NMSF? My DC knew a long time ago he wasn't going to any college where it would mean merit aid (Bama, Ole Miss, Arizona etc.). He chose to take the SATs the same week as PSATs and we told him not to worry about the PSAT. Scored 1550+ on the SATs and below DC's cut-off for NMSF. I'm pretty sure his higher SAT score trumps a lower scoring NMSF student's PSAT, but there are a lot of other factors that will determine who gets into which schools. [/quote] You should care because as a NMSF colleges actively recruit your child, for some colleges it's an automatic merit scholarship if he/she is accepted, it opens access to honors program in a school and much more. I wouldn't discredit the value being a NMSF shaved 50k off my daughter's 4 year tuition. [/quote]
