[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My middle child was a NMS (still is, or only in the year you got it?). It did nothing because they didn't want the full rides offered by schools in the south, and the school they go to does not participate (and they were shut out of many top tier schools even with excellent GPA, ECs, etc). We told DC #3, a current HS Jr, the PSAT meant nothing and I didn't give a hoot what they got on it and they shouldn't either.[/quote] You can put it on college applicatons/resume. It only helps.[/quote] Honestly, it does nothing, does not help or hurt. Absolutely nothing unless you want to apply to schools (which are mainly non top tier) that give merit aid. [/quote] Why would you say it has no effect?[/quote]
