[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Though I understand it’s rare, would the value of a NMSF PSAT score be diminished by a sub part SAT score? Say, DC scored 224 on the PSAT, but only 2100 on the SAT? Is that still better than someone who scored 210 on the PSAT and 2240 on the SAT?[/quote] I think the issue would be that a 2100 SAT would not put you in range for competitive colleges regardless of your PSAT score or NMSF status. So you are much better off with the 2240 regardless of the PSAT score. [/quote] 2100 would put you right near the top end of the lowest 25% range for Harvard and most uber competitive schools, a little above the lowest 25% for schools like Vandy. Of course, the lower 25% is full of HOOKS, but isn't NMSF a hook? There are a few schools that actively seek out NMSF winners. The 2240 isn't going to WOW anyone at Harvard or other top schools.[/quote]
