[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I dont understand the hype on nmsf. My son missed nmsf by 1 point but he had already taken the SAT the summer before and got a 1580. We did not use the commended status on the app bc we did not have a lot of room and I really dont understand why schools would care about 11th grade psats when they have the SAT. Am I the only one that finds this a strange thing to focus on?[/quote] No but you are missing the point. Great that your DC had other things to say. Some don't. And, in any case, it is their choice on whether to include it, not some tin pot dictator.[/quote] Well said. And for me, while possibly this was not intentional, this is in line with other actions FCPS has taken to reduce the focus on academics in favor of equity.[/quote]
