[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] This is a BS award. 1580-1600 SAT range, 4.0 GPA, numerous academic and EC awards are normal in my kid's school. No one is represented here. [/quote] Students who meet the score criteria, regardless of school, are candidates. (If I remember right, the score has to be from one sitting of the ACT or SAT; it is not superscored.) If students from your kids' school had high enough test scores, you should find them on this list: https://www2.ed.gov/programs/psp/2021/candidates.pdf Students who are nominated may choose not to proceed in the competition. (There is an application and easy process for candidates who want to be considered as potential semifinalists and finalists.) The final results come out late enough that they aren't relevant for college admissions. (Plus a free trip to DC may not be compelling to local students!) That said, it is a lifelong honor for those who win.[/quote]
