[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow. That's really scary to think that a student would be eliminated from consideration from a PSAT score. My DS missed the DC cutoff by one point! Our school tells kids not to obsess over the PSAT because the SAT is what matters, but maybe it makes more sense to prep for the PSAT if that's the test that will eliminate you.[/quote] They won't be "eliminated from consideration" or hurt by the PSAT scores. Schools ask for the [b]ACT or SAT[/b]. NMSF only makes a difference if it is a school that is actively trying to recruit Finalists (and that's not the case with the traditional highly selective schools). Your school is correct in its assessment to target the SAT/ACT for prep.[/quote]
