[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]290 grads, only 20 National Merit Semifinalists. http://hwchronicle.com/seniors-qualify-as-national-merit-semifinalists/ My take is that this is an example of how little NMS matters. Many kids do significantly better on the SAT.[/quote] only 20? that's pretty good, no? I thought less than .5% of students nationally got NMS so if nearly 12x as many are getting that at HWS from a competitive state, that's pretty impressive. On a side note, I'm shocked that nearly 4x as many apply to UMich over UVA.[/quote] 1/3 of TJ kids are NMSF.[/quote] TJ had 145 this year.[/quote] That's true, but since VA has one of the highest cutoffs in the US having 1/3rd of the kids qualify is very impressive. NMSF is meaningless as the cutoff is not the same for every state[/quote][/quote]
