[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MD is allotted ~300 NMSF, while DC is allotted only ~30. The MD schools will always have more by design.[/quote] I'm confused. DC's cutoff is set based on the highest individual state score nationally, not the top 0.5 percent of test takers. So how can it have a set alloted number of NMSFs? For example, if all the top DC privates closed or decided to move to MD or VA, the number of NMSFs would plummet because although the 99.5 percentile score among DC students would drop, the cutoff score would still remain high. It seems like DC's number of NMSFs could fluctuate quite a bit from year to year depending on strength of cohort and whatever the highest state cutoff score may be that year, and would not be as stable as the number in MD or VA.[/quote]
