[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nobody gives a shit about being a national merit semifinalist, and I'm speaking from experience. It's the most overrated award out there. [/quote] True that no one cares. Not true that it's meaningless bc I got a bunch of scholarship offers as a result.[/quote] Third vote for no one cares. Also the bar in DC is crazy high. Any kid hitting that mark is also getting scholarships for a high SAT/ACT score. Where NMSF matters by itself is for states ike WV and OK where the bar is low, and kids can be NMSFs even though they can’t score high on the SAT/ACT. [/quote]
