[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone know if places like Alabama, that give lots to NMFs, care if the student's SAT score is much lower?

-asking for a friend...[/quote]

There's a strange misconception on this thread that you can become a NMF with a great PSAT score and SAT doesn't matter.  That's incorrect.  You can become a "Commended" student or Semifinalist based on the PSAT, but you need to score equally well on the SAT to advance to a Finalist or Scholar.[/quote]

Actually, what they asked (and[b] what you conveniently did not just quote[/b]) is whether the score could be much lower.  Not whether they needed to take the SAT.  So, in reality, my answer is much more helpful to them and the rest of DCUM.[/quote]

What on Earth?  You cut the quote out, I responded to you, pointing out that the quote was gone.  Your version of helpful is ... fascinating.[/quote]

Can the two of you please take this fight elsewhere? Thank you. [/quote]
