[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Official DC 223 MD 222 VA 222[/quote] National Merit Semifinalist cutoffs are based on the State or District in which the School you attend is located, and not where the student actually lives. If your student attends a School located in DC (even if they love in Maryland or Virginia) they will need to have a PSAT index score of 223 or higher to be designated a NMSF. If their School is located on Maryland or Virginia (even if they live in DC) they will need to have a PSAT index score of 222 or higher to be a NMSF. A lot of 222 scorers at DC Schools will be wishing their Schools were in Maryland or Virginia where that score would have made them a NMSF. It is also why you cannot compare the number of NMSFs in DC Schools with the number of NMSFs in Maryland and Virginia Schools, when assessing strength. Although Maryland and Virginia Schools can be compared to each other.[/quote]
