[quote=Anonymous]Automatic Consideration: Candidates are identified based on high test scores (top 20 males/females in each state). Nomination: CSSOs nominate candidates based on academic success and, in some cases, character. Application: Invited students submit essays, self-assessments, and school reports. I remember reading it had to be one sitting, not super-scored. In MCPS alone, there are enough perfect scores to make up the top 40 in the state. I don't think it's easy to get a nomination in Moco with anything other than a perfect school. You'll see a large portion of MD Presidential Scholars Candidates last year were from the magnet schools. The list posted below will give you a sense of the breakdown by DMV schools, which is pretty consistent. Approximately 0.16% to 0.17% of U.S. high school seniors are nominated to be PS Candidates. Whereas NMSF I believe is top 4%. https://www.ed.gov/media/document/2025-awards-candidates-presidential-scholar-program-109446.pdf[/quote]
