Links for 1500 SAT and 40% (NMSF)?[/quote]

See bottom of page 1. Each class is 100 kids

National Merit Scholarship Competition; Semifinalists Class of 2016 - 40

• The Median SAT scores for the Class of 2016.
Verbal - 750 Math - 750 Writing - 730 Total - 2240[/quote]

1. It says 114 were accepted and enrolled not 100.
2. The data for ranking methodology is using average SAT not median SAT score to rank. The cited SAT scores are median scores.
3. For class of 2016 40/114=35% (The actual ranking appears to have used older data from 2006 to 2015 not just 1 year for 2016)
4. For example, TJ had 169 NMSF for 2016 so that would make the % of NMSF 169/480=35.2%[/quote]
