[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The National Merit does not matter for college admission--whether a semifinalist (NMSF) or commended. Period. What matters is your submitted SAT/ACT score (and even this is debatable). But if you distribute certificates to NMSFs (top 1% of state test takers), and not to students who are commended (top 3% of all test takers) then you are doing an injustice to commended students. Why should they not receive the recognition that they earned and deserved?[/quote] But people are framing this as having robbed students of scholarships and admission to college. The Langley parents on the news totally bought that message and so are lots of people in these threads. [/quote]
