[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nobody cares about National Merit Semifinalists. It gets you literally nothing. Focus on something that matters, like the SAT (does that still matter?). Signed, former National Merit Semifinalist. [/quote] I saw this in recent topics and came here to say pretty much the same thing. I was actually a finalist. Although I’m from Delaware, so it was probably really easy to be selected. I got 4K in scholarship money (if I remember correctly), which my parents were thrilled about (it was the mid 90s, so that meant more back then). And…. That’s it. No one cares. It has never come up again. I didn’t even get into an Ivy League school.[/quote]
