[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I personally think having different cutoffs for different states is bogus. Why should one kid be a NMSF with a 212 while a kid with a 222 in another state is not?[/quote] Because some states/school districts have a lot more resources. I personally think the current approach is fair. [/quote] Last year, students from Title 1 schools in Massachusetts had to score 222 to be semifinalists, and private school students in the wealthiest Mississippi enclaves only had to score 209. [/quote] And in Mississippi, about 40 percent of the semifinalists come from three schools -- two private schools and a public math and science boarding school.[/quote]
